No spark--No Way

Ok Scotty, I enjoy your help, tips and fixes, but I think I can stump you on this one. 1987 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce 2.0L Injection--no spark.

1987 Spider Veloce, with no spark.
Changed, checked, or serviced: Both tranny sensors,
Distributor, cap and rotor, OEM coil
HT leads,
Power to components
Battery charged
Ignition switch and fuses
That's everything I can think of except for the little silver box behind the passenger seat,
and the other box on rear passenger panel.
Can the Ignition module ECU be tested without a service tech? I've got no qualified in this state (WY).
Note: -pulse at coil, and rest ECU as you have explained.
 
Quick history. Second owner previous owner did cosmetic work. Still 98% original.
Running one day distributor rotor fried, replace with OEM. 
Since then no spark.
I live in Cheyenne, WY and no services or dealer with in 200 miles.
I think I checked everything but, you are the expert in automotives.
 
You you have any thoughts please send me help. Summer is closing fast up here.
Thank you, sir and have a great day.

 Realize you have an old Italian junker known for electrical failures. Odd Jared is in the ECU I'm no alpha expert but if it has a separate ignition control module replace that but good luck finding parts of that thing in the United States. I used to work on them all the time and I had problems getting parts for him back in the 80s
