At my wits end still!

Short history.

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...threadid=91402

Parked truck because of cold and tranny leaking.

After 2 months, pulled dash bezel to install camaro tach.

Re-installed everything and truck turns over, but does not start.

Basically re-built the distributor (HEI) New cap, rotor, coil on top of cap, ignition module, and the thing that goes around the shaft of the dizzy.

I found loose connection on the top of the steering column next to the firewall. Pushed it back in, but then turned the key and nothing. Pulled the connection and wiggled while re-connecting, then motor would turn over but will not start.

Power to the dizzy with key in on position and while cranking.

I have tried the screwdriver in the spark plug wire next to metal, but no spark or arc.

What other way of testing to see if there is spark coming from the dizzy if I cannot get the screwdriver way to work?

Is there a way to pull the dizzy out and have the whole thing tested to see if it is in there somewhere.?

Where should I go from here?

Thanks

Ron
