Default 95 Dakota starting problem

No spark at coil to distributor. Wire and coil resistence is good. 12 v power is at coil when ignition is turned on test light full brightness as well. Dimmed test light with indication of pulsing when starter is engaged. why no spark? Thanks for any input.

Possibly bad crank or cam sensors or the notorious power spices. Any check engine light codes? Are you getting fuel?

I will move this to the 1st Generation Dakota sub-section.
