Just bought this car after it sitting for 4-6 months. Previous owner said it always started and ran fine, she parked it because it got hot after a bit. I let the battery charge all the way, and put fresh gas in it. I turn the key to ON, and I can hear the fuel pump prime. I turn the key to start it and the engine turns over, but never fires up. So I pulled a plug wire and put a spare plug on it and sat within arc-ing distance of the engine. While turning over, there's no arc. I tried two wires, and neither had spark. I believe the fuses are good (I checked the one that said Ignition Coil). I took the distributor cap off, and while the engine's turning, the rotor button is turning as well. It isn't corroded. Matter of fact, the cap and button look brand new. Am I missing something? I really want this car to run! Thanks for your help in advance.
