Default problem with my ram 50...HELP PLEASE

I have a 92 ram 50 and it wont start...at first it seemd like it wasnt getting fuel but the fuel pumps working....no clogged lines....fuel filters good.....i checked the distributer cap and i cleaned it and it started...then it died and wouldnt start anymore...i bought a new one......that didnt work....then i bought a rotor...that did work for a while....and it ran for a whole day really good and then the next morning it stopped and wont start now........its turning so its not the starter....i think its somethin minor but i cant figure it out....i bought new spark plugs and that didnt work either....what could it be????

Why do you think you have fuel to the motor?

yes unhook the fuel line and see if gas is coming out when you turn the key. Or pull the whole sneding unit out nad hook it to a 12volt source.

ps i dont know much about that truck...if the sending unit is in the gas tank and you do decide to pull it out, be VERy carful since a guy was looking for a new tank for this truck and he couldnt find it anywhere.
