Replaced coil,cleaned all contacts.disconnected kill switch, set coil at0.10 and still no spark
1) The primary circuit: is battery, cap, resistor, capacitor,switch ignition+secondary circuit spark plug, distributor, high tension wires+spark plug.
the mayor problem arise in the coil and distributor, And the most common problem INCORRECT Choice de spark plugs or improperly gapped.
Rememeber the coil send 20,000-30,000 Vdc for spark plug.
Test with a screwdriver , pull out the center wire from the distributor cap and hold 3/8inch from a good ground. Crack the engine, if there no spark, or the spark is weak, the coil is defective or the high tension wires.
2) Bypass by a moment the baas resistor with a jumper wire while cranking engine If the engine starts, replace the ballast resistor.
God bless you.
SOURCE: Need to set spark plug gap
Read the labels under the hood. Spark plug gap can quite often be found on one of the labels somewhere in the engine compartment.
If not, then the owners manual or a service manual that you can purchase.
SOURCE: have fuel and spark but no start
get a helper to crank it while you twist distributer slowly in either direction to see if it starts
let me know how you get on ok

No, no need to replace everything. There is a sensor, Mass air flow, located in one of the metal tube sections of your intake manifold. The qires will give it away. Pick up some CRC electrical spray cleaner and wash that sensor as good as you can without brushing, rubbib=nf r otherwise touching Do not use compressed air, it will dry quickly on its own. Seeif this saves you a few bucks. Your air cleaner/filter needs to be kept clean and leak free. The MAF controls your fuel and will shut down the engine if it doesn't sense the intake air. If you doubt your coils, watch under the hood after dark. If you see a light show, Replace whatever is letting the spar escape. and it wouldn't hurt to have the plugs gapped at specs. Good Luck, Ned-
