Default no spark

Ok so just yesterday my car started hesitating and will not speed up that quickly when accelerating. Found out the right side of the motor was not getting no spark from the wires but the left side was. So we figured it was the distributor or the ignition coil. Replace both of those but still can not getting any spark just on the right side of the motor so thats the left distributor cap or ignition coil. Any other thing u guys can think of that is causing me not to get sparks in the wire? Motor will still run but just really horrible. Its a 92 sc400. Thx for any help.

Check and swap the ignitors out with each other. This will tell you if one of them is bad. They are located on the driver strut tower. See if it makes a difference

I swapped out the ignitor from changing the connector from one to the other and the distributor on the right side is still working fine. How can I tell which one is bad if it is?
