this might be a stretch but do you have another condensor handy that you could toss in real quick? EDIT Not suggesting a purchase but do you have another coil you could borrow from one of your other vehicles or from a friend for a day?

I know this is very basic, but is firing order correct? How is condition of the wires? Run in a very dark garage and see if you observe sparks.

RapidRobert you are a genius! Yes, I had 2 spare condensers. 1 from the swap meet distributor and 1 that I already bought. I replaced the condenser and it fired right up!
