When I have loss of spark on those, and find it under the cap, it gets an A/C delco pickup coil and module, cap and rotor, and wires if there is resistance of hi reading, then a new set of A/C delco plugs, it is like having a flawless dependable brand new ignition system. During your diag, an inspection of the cap towers and the resistance tests with an ohmmeter can reveal corrosion? ashes? but your module can go intermittant on you if you use aftermarket in my experience. You can even get decent Delco parts at pik-n-pull ! Less money, and pass an ohmeter is better than china.
