Is your distributor cap on straight? 2 and 5 are on the same side of the cap, so if it's on crooked, there's a possibility the rotor isn't making contact with the contacts to the plugs. When I replaces my ignition-electrics I found the cap had been on crooked at one stage and the rotor had worn a slit into the cap ABOVE the contacts... Hope this helps...
