Car not getting spark.
Alright.
I'm really out of ideas.
Previous owner upgraded it to electronic ignition.
I have power to my coil. Coil is new. Coil is sending spark to distributor.
But it isn't getting to the plugs.
Distributor isn't cracked. Nothing is excessively worn down or corroded.
Quite stumped. Anyone got an idea?

Do you have an actual mopar electronic dist? Or just a normal one where you have to splice the wires into it? If you have option 2, get rid of it, and get a mopar electronic dist from O'reillys, craigslist, autozone, ect.
Pull the cap off, check to see if the pick up is chewed up. Mine did that.

The clamp was slightly corroded. distributor wasn't getting ground. I now have spark.
Fun fact.
My fuel pump also decided to go out at the same time.
Never a dull moment.
