Not starting after 4 months

I tried to start my car - after 4 months - and it won't start - I get a spark out of the coil - blaster 2, but not at the plugs through the HEI distributor? I have yet to take the cap off and look around - but any ideas. As my bio says - I have the Accel Super Ram kit, but I don't think that it is electrical, as the coil is getting a signal from the HEI distributor to generate a spark.

Burnt rotor, cam not spinning? I do not use the car that often to burn the rotor.

Any ideas?

I would verify that the rotor is working and all is well under the cap. You have a external coil? If so take a close look at the cap and the coil wire. If the car ran fine when you parked it I would also look for moisture under the cap and clean it out with some wd-40. Im sure there is more to check but my head is all wore out from work today . Keep us posted

Yeah I agree... check for moisture under the cap.
