Ok so there was voltage at the ignition coil, 12v.. so checked the tach wire, with a test light while turning over and it stayed solid. I think that since the ignition module is new, the sensing coil is bad. I guess it could also be a bad module, but I would hope not.. I literally opened the package, put on the grease, put it in place screwed it in and plugged it in... I would hope it's not bad.

I couldnt find the oil pressure sensor... Just a temp sensor.and a sensor wire on the water pump..
When I pulled the dist cap again and felt the distributor shaft, the top of it(with the rotor off, the disc that spins between the poles) had about 20 degrees of play in it without twisting the shaft.. is that normal? I think that I might just get a whole new distributor if I can find the part number for it...

Is that something that I might be able to get from Napa? Thanks in advance for any help.
