What would cause for one to fire out of the coil but not out of the distributor and spark plug wires?

Check the rotor and cap if need be replace both it has to go thru it before it goes thru wires and plugs.

We already have changed the cap and rotor. Everyone we have talked to even our local mechanics can't figuere this out. We have even called mechanics in the major dealerships close by and they don't know. We have put new spark plugs and wires cap and rotor rotary button and checked to see if it has jumped time, it didn't. We also checked the ignition censor. Please tell me you know something else.
