Have you looked to see if you are getting spark? I keep an old sparkplug (and 
wire) in my tool box that I can plug in to see if I am getting any spark. I 
also have a pair of "battery charger clamps" that are screwed together, one 
side to clip on the block and the other to hold the plug. Real easy to check 
for spark then. I use the spare plug wire to plug into the coil to see if I 
get spark there if nothing is happening at the plug.
