Default Spark plug wont spark engine wont turn over ....

my 1994 ford ranger xlt 2.3L 4 cylinder truck wont turn over I spent over $700 on parts alone I bought a new starter and fuel line and a whole new engine for it and when I tried to start it the spark plug didn't even get spark. I have a feeling it might be the ignition control module cause I broke the head of one of the bolt on it and now I have a feeling it not completely grounded but im not sure if that is how it works I just want to see the truck run after everything I put into it please please anyone help me fix this I don't want to spend $150 on a new ignition module cause I tested it and everything is working I just think its the ground but someone help me please

Coils maybe?

Not to mention, the first place you always look thats always easy to forget (because even I forgot before I replied) is your fuses.

I'm lost, and that absolutely painful to read run on sentence doesn't help. With that said, you first say it doesn't turn over then you say it' doesn't get spark. How can you determine that it's not getting spark if it doesn't turn over? Please clarify whats really going.
