I'm presuming this is a non Evo engine.

Before you spend out on a new coil it's worth checking the ignition switch.

If it's one of the old 'press to make' switches, they are usually ok.

But if it is a 'pull for on' micro switch type, it could well be faulty.

Remove the connectors and short the loom connectors with a piece of wire, thus bypassing the switch.

I know they say you can blow a coil if the earths fail but I've not come across one. They usually survive.
