Check all wires against a wiring diagram. You need to have 12 positive
volts to the + side of the coil, I know that much. This comes from the
ignition switch. On my baby that particular contact broke so I have a
rocker switch I use to supply power to the coil. Make sure your wires from
your points are connected to the coil properly as well (and maybe test the
condenser).

I just installed my motor into my '73 squareback a week ago. I
replaced starter, generator, regulator and a coil. Just converted the car
into dual carburetor.
When I start the car, the starter works fine but there are no
sparks coming out from coil. I checked out the coil on the other car that
works fine. I could not trace the problem since I rechecked the wires I
installed.
Am I missing something here? Any tips or advices would be
great....
