no spark, sometimes

Sometimes i will get spark and my car will fire up and run great, other times it wont get spark at all. Ive already replaced the ignition module and that didnt fix it. What else do you guys think i could check?

Maybe the distributor. It might be that the distributor hold down bolt is loose or the distributor itself is going bad.
