did you check the rotor in the distributer or the cap? was it runing b4 and just stoped?

this might be a dumb question, but have u changed the plugs? Does it sound like it wants to turn over?

There are two "ignitors" (ignition modules) mounted on the exterior of the dizzy. One for leading spark (lower plugs) and one for trailing (top plugs). If you are only lacking spark on the leading or the trailing (not both) then chances are its the ignitor. These are very expensive new, but can be found cheap at junkyards or on Ebay.

yea the car was running before and then just died on me out of no where i replaced the coils and then it started rite up again. but then i dorve it for like 40 min and it died again doing the same thing.

the plugs are new and yes it does seem like it is trying to turn over but nothing just crankes and crankes.
