Check the wire that goes from the igniter unit to the coil. That wire is a signal wire for the coil to spark. If you put a test light on there while you are cranking the motor, it should blink, as though the motor is firing. Of course, you will need to remove the distributor cap to do this test, but if you get no blinking, you need a new igniter. About $100-$120 at the dealer....
