Disconnect a wire from a spark plug and fix it
about 1.4" from some metal part, and crank.
Look for a regular sparking.  Then check from
the spark coil the same way, but you should see
4 times as many sparks.

Once my sister's Volvo simply refused to start.
it turned out to be that the distributor got
loose and it rotated, throwing the timing totally off.
