I have a 93 dakota with a 318.I am having a problem with not getting any spark.I have replaced a few things(coil,cap,rotor,plugs,pickup coil,and the computor)The computor fixed the problem for about 3 weeks and now no more spark.I even checked the timming chain and it looks like new.I have only owned this truck for a few months.I have checked the wiring and fixed a few things that looked kind of iffy.I am now at a loss as to what to try next.I will be greatfull for any and all help.Thanks.

could be the infamous 115 splice?

could also be a bad ground at the PCM. I ran into that on my old 95. I think it was pins 11 & 12. Check the haynes manual for the pcm wiring. pull the pcm connector off and check it with multimeter.
