Vince;

I expect you may not be making (or routing to plugs) the IGNition high voltage...

Check for spark by disconnecting any sparkplug wire, plugging it on a spare plug (or laying it on valve cover with a gap), laying sparkplug onto valvecover so that it is grounded, and you can see spark, when and if it occurs at gap...turn IGN ON, (Neutral, Handbrake ON), and bridge with a screwdriver or similar between bolt on starter solenoid (which has big wire from battery connected), and little control wire (which supplies power to energize solenoid). This will turn over engine...observe sparkgap, watch for spark...you should see sparks at gap...if not, pull distrib center wire, hold (rag to keep you away from high voltage) near ground with a gap...repeat...this will tell you if coil is generating spark, but dist has problems (like defective rotor)...advise results here.

This is extremely condensed version...sorry, but I'm pressed for time! normally I'd give much more detail...so I hope it helps...ask here with questions if still not sure!

Good Hunting!
