Is the new coil mated to the fender properly as this is how it grounds. Did you test the new coil w/key to start?

make sure the coil pack is grounded, and because it wasn't firing, make sure the plug is not fouled.

I was thinking the same thing because I start my car and it dies right out if I don't keep the idle up and wont rev over 2500
