did it spark? the suspense is killing me... If it sparked ,check under the dizzy top there should be a carbon bit on a spring ,look where the rotor arm is pointing ,clockwise look for the next ht lead ,that lead put a spark plug on and make sure it touches something metal [engine/exhaust]... Put dizzy top on ,with ignition on ,turn the bottom pully clockwise and watch for spark...
