Smile Help my 76 450 sl wont start

my car has been in a dry garage for 5 years not started with the motor out of the car so i can do the do the oil pump, timing chain and also seal the motor, i only have 97,000 on the car so I bought a cis k-jetonic gage kit to ck fuel, all lines have the rite amount of bars of fuel, it seems like the plugs are not firing, i keep taking them out to clean them so i see there are getting dark,i changed a coil,cap & rotor,wires,and also both 0.4 & 0.6 ohm resistors, i pulled the injectors,they are working fine,i think its sometimes not getting spark,once in awhile it will run for a few seconds,then stop, but i dont see any reason for this, when all seems to be ok,i see that im not the only one with problem,450 380 seem to do the have the same things, i could use some ideas,thanks

You sure the fuel pump is ok? I bought 3 SLC's and all had dead fuel pumps from sitting.

spark

Make sure you have the correct coil. From what I have read and understand, anything other than the BLUE Bosch coil will not work.
