I know this isn't really a Stovebolt question, but you guys have always been a big help when I get stuck on a problem so I figured why not ask.

My dad bought a one owner 41 Ford with a 11A flathead engine awhile back and I'm trying to help him get it started up for the first time. There was no spark when we turned it over for the first time so we've changed the distributor since it was obviously corroded and I was trying to figure out how to check the old coil and condenser...Any ideas?
