Yep, module inside will go bad or you'll find the wiring is broken. Replace it, it's not that hard to do. And replace the condenser too to be safe and not have to pull it again to change it after replacing the module. Had that happen a couple of times with my 79 Formula FB.

If you've had the distributor out, make sure it's not 180 degrees off.

Default getting gas

make sure that it is getting gas and spark. Put some in the tank, it could have evaporated. Then make sure you're getting spark by using a timing light or pull a plug, ground it to the block and look for spark.

Start with the basics, gas and spark.
