Won’t Start!

Use a volt meter. With the ignition on you should have 12 volts at the coil +terminal. Assuming that is OK, check the coil -terminal several times after clicking the starter. Should sometimes read 0 other times +12. If not there is trouble with the points, the ground or the hot lead. If that is OK, be suspicious of the connection between the rotor and distributor cap and check that the rotor is firmly seated. Good luck.

When you switch on the key, do you hear the fuel pump tick?
Disconnect the fuel line at the filter bowl, and see if the pump will pump gas into a jar....
If you have spark and you have fuel, it will start....
Next , remove the air cleaners , and look to see if the choke butterflies are operating....Still no start? Spray some starting fluid in the carbs, and stand back when you crank....
Just my 2 cents
