Proper methods for checking spark 200

I have a carbed car that recently cut out on me. Found occasional spark. Was stumped. Then I checked the wire from the coil to the condensor on the distributor - bad connection.

So if you have a similar wire (not ign cable) from coil to distributor, check it.

Btw, how do people check for spark, if you're stranded with nobody to turn the ign key for you? Sven's Maintainer's method?
