Still stuck, then.

You really need to start (cruel pun not intended) with a timing 
light.  If its flashing when you crank the engine then the fault 
isn't electrical, although it could still be the timing out and not 
by much.

A test lamp connected to the connection between the points and the 
coil *will* light when the points are opened and go out when the 
points are closed, if the other side of the lamp is connected to 
ground.
