Are you saying that you tested for spark and there is none?
What kind of ignition system do you have? HEI?

If you have a spark but it's not strong enough, that pretty much eliminates the module and power supplies. It can be a weak coil or high resistance somewhere along it's path to the spark plug.

So, that would mean that you couldn't have had any spark at all. That component provides the reference signal for the ignition.
