1988 Ford Bronco not starting

I have a old 1988 ford bronco 2 that I’ve been fixing up here and there and use as a daily. As of lately she has been just cutting out on me mid drive. It would kind of just stop accelerating rpm’s didn’t shoot up when this was happening and when I was pressing the gas so I don’t think it’s got to do with the transmission. I did multiple sensors new fuels pumps all that’s good stuff besides distributor cap and button because if you know the 2.9s you know the distributor is a pain in the <profanity removed by mod>, So I took off the cap and rotar put new ones on and put plugs back the exact way to a t and it wouldn't start it may have something to do with the button because the new one just sits there but with the old one you have to press it down they both look identical so I don't know , so I put the old cap and button back and and it started right up when I was tightening the screw I stripped the bolt by accident so now the old one won't come off so I decided to leave it on there and just put spark plugs back on and call it a day we'll when I did this I went to go see if it'll turn back on and it did the same thing as what the new one was doing do yall have any ideas what this might be Ik I didn't screw the timing up because the distributor didn't move at all


Please watch your language on this forum. Thank you.

Replace the distributor cap.


I'm pretty sure "replaced cap and rotor" means he did that.
