Check to see if your coil wire is giving spark to th cap. If you have spark there, then it's either the cap or rotor cracked. If it's not that, then it may be te switch in the distributor that is doing it.

The switch is insidethe distributor under the rotor. Also check for a crankshaft sensor, it would be on the passenger side of hte block bythe oil pan. Either one could be bad.
