If you're sure it's getting fuel you should check for fire from your coil wire. Pull the coil wire
from the cap and hold it within 3/16-1/4" of a good ground while someone cranks the engine with
the ignition switch on. If you have no fire there
check for battery voltage at the coil with a volt meter with the ignition switch on. If voltage is present. Replace points and condenser.
If you have good hot spark at coil wire, check for fire at your plugs by removing a plug wire and see if fire will jump from the plug wire to the plug while someone cranks the engine over with ignition switch on. Good fire, pull a plug and hook the wire to the plug and ground the plug on the engine and see if the plug fires. Plugs may need replacing if the plug doesn't fire.

A bad coil or ballast resistor will cause a no start too. Hal
