On a carburetors motor pull the coil wire from the distributor cap (the plug wire in the center of the distributor). This is usually found between the air cleaner and the firewall. Remove the desired spark plug from the engine block, plug it into the coil wire and touch the spark plug body (the metal portion) to the engine block while cranking the engine. You will see spark if the plug is good.
