That thread explains where the CPS is and how to change it. Once you've found it you can inspect the wiring to see what it's like - good chance it's very brittle and/or broken, in which case you'll almost certainly need a new one before you can go any further.

Leave the ignition amp for now, check the CPS first or if you do find the fault by changing several bits at once, you'll never know which bit was faulty!

Coil - probably not even worth thinking about, certainly at this stage. Like Clan says, they're one of the most reliable coils on the planet and coils in general rarely give problems these days, mainly because of electronic ignition - in the old days with contact breakers/points, people would sit with the ignition on listening to the radio and burn the coil out, either completely or very nearly then it would fail some time later.
