Something that I have done before in cases like this is to run a wire straight
from the top of the coil to one of the plugs (plug wire is best but any wire
will work). This gives that plug a spark 4 times as often as normal but at
least tells you that it is firing. The engine will run (roughly) on one plug
and allow you to start figuring out what is really wrong.
