Mike,
Has he tried hot-wiring directly from the battery + post to the coil? (Use
a wire with aligator clips that you can yank off.) That'll bypass any
harness/ignition-switch issues so you can concentrate on gas/air.
Is the choke sticking? What about checking for vacuum leaks in the carbs/intake?
There are many items to check, use a checklist and be methodical.
