No spark at the plug? Or no spark at the coil?
Check for spark at the coil first, then for spark from the dizzy.
When was the last time the cap and rotor were changed?

No, but if the battery is weak it could have worn it down enough to where it doesn't have the output to operate the starter and the coil at the same time. I'd start at the ignition control module. It's mounted on the dizzy body, and prone to failure from heat. Most autoparts stores now test them for free.
