No Spark

I'm having a problem getting any type of spark on a B/S small engine. I changed the points and condenser yesterday and checked the coil with a home made tester with a 6V battery. With that I got a spark to the spark plug. Which to me indicates the secondary and primary is working. Using a multi-meter connected to the plug wire and ground, it appears to have voltage to the plug. The point are set right and the gap between the magneto and flywheel are set. I've checked everything I can think of to check. Shorted wires, open wires, etc. The engine is a 92982, type 1704. There is no kill switch, and if there was I wouldn't be getting any voltage at the plug wire when using a multi-meter. I'm lost as to what is going on. Any help would certainly be greatly appreciated. Thanks
