That wouldnt have anything to do with it not sparking though.

Oh, I thought you meant just start.
Are all of your wire connections correct?

yeah it seems to be all tight and it all should be right because it ran fine a few months ago. I think its something before the coil, ignition module or something.

unplug and replug the connectors. If that doesn't clear it up, jump wire battery+ directly to the coil + and see if it fires. If not, then likely the ignition box bit the big one. ('77 still has the Presto-no-lite setup?)
