2 lives to the coil is normal iirc, it just earths one of them when it wants to spark. Is this a fresh conversion or a car that was running but now isnt? Do you have the EM light coming on when you turn the ignition on?

Have you made sure there's a good earth between the coil bracket and the car body? I've had this stop the spark before.

Well just make sure the coil has a good earth. If it still won't start flash the fault codes out, don't forget tho you ALWAYS get the fault code for crank sensor when it's not running.
If it is the crank sensor I have a spare from a dizzy XE.
