Geez ..... no it won't start.
Yesterday after posting I noticed the rubber plug used to block the brake booster vacuum port was cracked. I preplaced it with a new plug(cap) and now the car won't start. I tried again with the cap removed ... same result.
I've got fuel pressure and gas goes into the carb when I move the throttle linkage.
Last night I removed the plugs cleaned them, reinstalled being carefull to reconnect the wires in the correct order.

So my big fear now is than something has gone wrong with my MSD or coil.
Sorry to be such a dunce, but what is the best way to test for spark.
The only way I know is to pull a plug leave the wire attached and see if there is a spark.
Is this correct?
