if you have a good spark at the plugs then the plugs, points and condenser are not at fault for the no start condition. Check compression first. If solid compression/ Then turn the engine slowly by hand (center stand both plugs out select a high gear) watch that the spark is in time with the compression (finger in hole works). A helper at this point is a good thing to turn the wheel for you. When you pull the plugs have a good look at them to see if they are wet with fuel.
