1969 Chevy Camaro V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

Hello, I'm working on a 69 camaro, and the car will not start. The car was running good. I have replaced the spark plug wires, rotor, elec. Spark control module, and the disturbutor. The rotor turns when trying to start it, so I think the timing should be ok, the car has a mallory master coil, mallory control module and a new accer wires. What else could the problem be. How could I test the master coil.

Thanks

Yes, the spark plugs are new, but no fire coming outof them. The car was running before the parts were installed but it was already hesitating to start it was turning off. It is getting gas becuase I smell it.

O.K. Pull coil wire out of cap crank spark. Are you positive distributor is in correctly? Use a volt meter chek voltage at coil, ign module.
