88 80q Distributer Update

[Quattro8880 at aol.com]

I have positioned (for sure) the cam to #1 TDC. I have inserted the 
distributer with the shaft key aligned to the mark on the out rotating housing. I 
replaced the rotor and cap. All wires are in good working order and connected. NO 
START.

I remove the #1 spark plug, plug it into the wire and ground the bottom of 
the plug and have some one turn over the car . NO SPARK.

Where do I go from here? How can I test the coil ?
