Fuel and spark was tested as you described.  Also, compression. All OK.  I had bought a rotor and cap from Advanced Auto, the cap showed a scouring but not the rortr (go figure).  I since replaced them with Bosch and the car now runs fine.  The question is will the car hold up.  The Advanced parts were aftermarket el cheapos!!! 

Maybe OEM or Bosch are the only way to go.
