The spark was not where?
At the end of the coil wire when held 1/4" from a head nut?
If so, then I'd first try shorting across the open points with a screwdriver and see if you have a good spark at the end of the coil wire. If not, then I'd try another condenser first, then the coil. I assume you have a solid wire for the coil wire, and not a carbon wire.
