If you're not getting a spark from the high tension wire despite having voltage to the coil, check the coil's primary and secondary windings for continuity with a multimeter, as a faulty coil can prevent spark production. Additionally, ensure that the ignition points are properly gapped and functioning; if they're stuck closed or open, they won't trigger the coil correctly. Lastly, verify that the distributor cap and rotor are in good condition and properly seated, as any damage or misalignment can disrupt the spark.
