The first thing to do is to determine if you are getting a spark. There are very simple test procedures well documented on the MSD website to test the ignition box, magnetic pickup and coil. All you need is a Volt/OHM meter to check the coil and Mag pickup. Very simple things to do. I agree with the idea of checking the rotation of the rotor too. Feel free to have your friend contact me if he has questions.
BTW: The output of the coil wire or a sparkplug wire will blow yo across the garage if you get zapped. Can be quite dangerous. So be careful.
