I agree with Dan. Check for 12 volts at the coil, check wires and connections again, and try a different coil off something else that runs. Even though you put a new dist. rotor on check the new one for cracks or just try the old rotor to see. I put a new rotor on once and found it had a small crack in it and that grounded everything to the shaft. Make sure the center carbon is still in the cap too. Check plugs & wires if not replaced yet. If you have a resistor inline check on both sides of it too. If you still have the mag I probably have the parts to fix it or can fix it for you.

Joe, If you would like, give me a call at the shop this evening, and maybe I can help sort out your problem for ya. It's easier discussing the problem on the phone than e-mail. As Dan mentioned, there's a lot of little things that could cause a "no spark" situation. Be happy to help you out....

You don't have a 12 volt coil trying to run off 6 volts do you? Do you have electricity getting to the coil? Is there spark going into the distributor but not coming out? Are the points adjusted well enough so that they open and close. It's possible that they sould be so out of adjustment that they're not closing. Just trying to narrow things down a little.
