Like others have suggested, you need to get timing correct, rotor pointing to number one when on tdc and points just opening with distributor rotating in normal direction. Some time ago, some one ran into a problem with the new set of points he had purchased where the rub bar that opens points was manufactured incorrectly and he could not get it in time.

I have one for checking armatures in my tools. Also have a graham coil tester, problem is you need specs for each individual coil to make a meaninful assesment of coils condition unless it is completely shot. Then a ohmmeter and or a hook up to correct voltage battery will do as well.
