1996 Chevy Astro won't start

Well I solved my own problem. I tested the voltage to the ingintion module and it was good 12.54V then I tested the voltage to the coil and it was also good 12.54V so that told me that there was the proper current flowing through the ignition module. I read that if you "crank the motor over in the dark you can see the spark" so I cranked the engine in the dark and found a short across the top of the coil right beside the high tension wire lead to the distributor and the coil. Just to check I taped off the area around the ark and the van start right away. Now all I have to do is change out the coil and I'm positive all will be fine. Hope this helps someone else with any problems they might have.
