Pull off a plug wire while a helper makes an attempt to start the engine. Make sure your ignition switch is in the on position. Don't choke the engine. If there's no fire from the plug wire rub the points with some 320 wet or dry until they're shiny. Then check for fire from that same plug wire. Again have the ignition switch in the on position when checking for fire to your sparkplug. If there's no fire from the plug wire use a volt meter and with the points open and your ignition switch on check for voltage on both small terminals on your coil.
