Went through a similar experience to yourself, ended up the engine was not earthing properly - so it was not completing the spark circuit.

I could not find my spare dissy, its gotta be there somewhere. Just fitted another rotor cap no diff. Just pulled coil out and about to swap with a good one.
Engine not earthing proplerly could be it, anythings worth a go before i find a sledgehammer and 5L of fuel.

Coil, while i was getting power at the coil lead it must not have been enough. swaped it with the one in my injected torana and it all but fired up first hit.
