'82 242 turns over but won't start 200 1982

Well, I really need help, wife's talking new car with a warranty!

Here's where I am at:

'82 242.
Chrystler ignition.
fuel pump tested and good.
fuel relay tested and good.

No spark at plug.
No spark at connection from coil to disributor cap.

Per a post I found in the archives, I have tried running a connection from the + terminal of the battery to the coil where the brown wire connects (#1 I believe).

I tested my coil and it was weak so I replaced it.

I am at a loss as to what to do next.

Thanks for the advice.
