The connector the supplies the coil with 12v is notorious for not making connection. Put a small piece of bare wire in the plug and then plug it into the coil to be sure its got a connection.
IF not that it could be the ignition module on the distributor, it takes a special little socket to remove/install it.

Yes, check the connector. Mine had a broken wire at the connector. Insulation was good but the wire inside was broken. I would have never found it if it wasn't for a write up in the BII tech section. Unfortunately that link is dead. Here's a similar one though. </title></head>"); newWindow.document.writeln("<body><div align='center'><img " + getWidth("yes") + "src='/images/cds/" + tpe + "/" + sze + "/" + pc + "." + tpe + "'></img></div>"); newWindow.document.writeln("<div align='center'><table><tr><td><FORM
