I have an 81 Dodge Van, 440 engine, getting gas, firing from coil, points set at 16k, fire to plugs, new plugs. Won't start. What else can it be?

Check voltage regulator. On older vehicles, a bad voltage regulator can prevent starting. Also, check all under-dash and under-hood fuses with a test light or multimeter. Examine distributor cap, rotor, and spark plug wires. Check compression.
