If the coil wire is firing strong to ground but none at any spark plug THE PROBLEM IS THE DISTRIBUTOR CAP OR ROTOR NOT CONDENSOR. I have seen rotor tips that have a short to the end of the dist shaft where they snap fit down so no fire gets out the tip to the cap. I have seen wrong dist caps that still fit as the problem. I have seen dist caps with hairline cracks or carbon traces that short the spark to ground versus delivering it to the cap where it should go. I have seen caps where the carbon at top the rotor springs against is bad.
YES a real capacitor tester can check a condenser and even a voltmeter using the kickback test can provide some indication but if you have a good spark out the coil that's NOT the problem, dist cap or rotor tip is where Id be looking.
