hello isn't there supposed to be a spark from the dizzy itself i thought if i took the cap off i would be able to see a spark in there somewhre?
buti'll gat a new coil anyway as it doesn't have the correct resistance init with accordance with the haynes

Yes, if you put a very small screw driver in the points you should get a very small spark.
