Default No spark, need help......

OK, I'm having a huge problem solving this no spark problem. But I'll not bore you with all the previous fault finding but say I have replaced the TFI, distributor is new, coil is new and wiring point to point checked, and a re-manufactured EEC IV installed.

So back to basics and check that the coil would spark off the car. With the connections below what do you think momentary connection of the black wire to battery negative would do?
Just for clarification the red lead is to the coil + and the black is switching the coil - to 0V.



I was expecting a nice fat spark but no? Tried the original coil, no spark and even checked with another new coil, still no spark?

What am I missing, this problem is a PITA

Could someone please replicate this set up in their garage and let me know what happens?

John
