Need a little ignition help car died
So I pulled the car out in the driveway last night and it died and had to push it back in 
So I have an 85 tpi I converted to the small cap distributor last year all was good till now. I also have an msd 6al connected and I have no spark.
1. I did the msd test disonnected coil wire and the white wire tapped to ground and no spark but a whining noise from the 6al was heard.
2. I made a new jumper to bypass the msd tried starting the car and had no spark still. I have the 2 pinks and 2 whites spliced together on the coil (also msd).
3. The msd coil reads .2 on 1 side and .9 on the other. Not sure how to test the module or spark from the ecm.
Any help would be appreciated I have to move the car by the weekend getting the garage drywalled.
Fixed it was the coil
