No Spark?
Have a friend with a new 79 F350. The beast is not getting spark.
Replaced the duraspark ignition box, dizzy cap, rotor and coil. All wiring for these looks good, but still no spark.
Will check again to make sure dizzy is spinning when turned over and no turn when off.
Troubleshooting ideas-- appreciated.

Double check the wiring circuit - check for continuity throughout the wires.
I had a similar problem to yours and it ended up being a broken wire within the sheath of the coil harness - about a foot from the coil. That was frustrating!
