Pull your coil wire from your dist and hold it to ground and have the missus crank it ...It should spark to ground...Make sure your engine ground and chassis ground wire are clean and tight...If there is no spark pull the coil wire right out and hold a piece of house wire,insulated with a pair of insulated pliers in the coil hole and check that for spark to ground...If that sparks it is your coil wire...If no spark it is your coil ,if you have the right primary voltage ...
