How are you checking for fire to the plugs? Since you've changed the cap, is the plug wires correct to firing order?

im checking fire by putting the plug in the wire and grounding it to the block and cranking over the engine to look for spark. and yes the firing order is correct. Allen are you meaning the coil inside the cap?
