no spark

I tend to think "in sections."

1....IS IT wired right? FOR SURE? Is it getting power, is it grounded? Getting power during cranking?

2....Is it getting triggered? Bad distributor? Wrong type (mismatched) distributor?

Red goes to battery, black goes to ground or battery.

Now, touch the green and purple to trigger it and test spark.

Last, turn key to on position, jump solenoid under hood to check if you have spark in start position.
