I have no spark at one of the coils, I swapped it with the other one and still no spark, I checked for voltage at that particular coil electrical connector and their is, what else should I check for?

check the wires at that coil.

One wire should have 12v with the key ON
The other should have 5v with the key ON
The third on is a ground. Check for continuityat that ground.

There is also an Ignition Failure Sensor which bolts to the top of the intake manifold (looks kinda like a MAP sensor). check for 12v coming into and out of that sensor with the key ON.
