Have you checked the coil?
Otherwise it's most likely the rotor, cap or wires. Not much between the dizzy and plugs.

Testing from the coil output spring to a grounded test wire, you should get bright blue sparks that can jump more than 1/2 inch. Weak yellow sparks aren't going to make it to the plugs, that usually means the coil is bad.

If no sparks at all, check that the black-yellow wire to the distributor has battery voltage while cranking.
