Nope

Apparently I left the car standing for too long this weekend and her
will to live seems to have completely vanished since. I'm not even
sure now it *is* an ignition problem and wonder if she's in need for
another heart transplant. However....

Ground strap seems okay (don't I also need that to run the solenoid?)
Steady voltage running to the coil.

When I lay one of the sparks on top of the engine I actually see it
sparking. Now my vision is somewhat blocked 'cause I'm looking through
the vent holes, but somehow the sparks seem erratic and I think they
are supposed to be blue-ish, not yellow. Still, shouldn't that give me
at least an occasional crank instead of the silent treatment I'm
receiving now???
