Ballast resitor

I did change out the condensor, to be honest that was the first thing i changed, the lack of spark or fire goes from wire to wire i thought it was only on #1 plug but travels from cylinder to cylinder sorry if i miss led, now what you said about the high temp
failure does make sense, i will check the cap. i have a new. i was going to put on the 3rd coil today but ran out of time,1 was older and this will be my second new coil still same problem.So if this new coil does not solve my problem i think i can rule out the coil,i know that the dual point Mallory is a simple/effective but is there anything that could go wrong to cause this failure?
