Ignition switch contacts also can be a problem,also is you have a known good coil you may want to change to it . As a long time Model A enthusiast found,unfortunately, just because it’s a new part doesn’t mean it’s good. Good luck,and don’t give up!!
Thank you. I have two coils and tried them both. I have also tried two different condensers. When I replaced the top plate in the distributor, I checked the wire under the plate and everything was good, no breaks, wear, etc.
I'll keep plugging away.
