Re: no spark
Try another condenser. Even the so-called "short-proof" ones can be bad right out of the package. I experienced that this past week when I installed a new one. No spark arcing from the new coil, but the points sparked. Still, though, no start. Putting in a grungy old condenser from my ignition parts box solved the problem. The engine fired right up. The new condenser just came this week and although it's supposed to be short-proof, this one was bad.
I'm not saying a bad condenser is your problem, but it's unlikely a second condenser will also be bad.
