1980 RoW 911SC cranks but will not start

problem solved looking for 901-602-502-00 coil
Hello
Im out of ideas and need your help. (go to problem begins if you dont want to read full story)
I have a nice 911SC, that i purchased in winter,
It drives very good, and starts right up.
After purchase i cleaned the aux air valve becouse of reving problem on cold engine.
It hepled and the temperatures are much better now.

I had a very bad battery, but the car always started after 1 or 2 revs, so it didnt bother me.
2 times i needed the push after i stalled cold car, and it didn't restart till batery died, i assumed overfloded
after the push it started right up.

Then a week ago I went to electritian to fix long short beam switch, fixed the lamp connector, and changed some short beam cable that was fried under the dash.
The car needed some turning - but started, and then i got home.
Next day I wanted to drive the car, but it didnt start and battery died.
I had this for a couple of times before but after connecting charging for the night next day the car started right up. Its a inteligent impuls charger. I didnt disconnect battery while charging the car.
I got tired of it so i got battery form my other car

THE PROBLEM BEGINS

I changed battery for a new one,
It turns like crazy, The tacho shows 4000rpm while cranking
the car doesnt even try to start.
I belive I even burned a little insulation on red positive cable going to battery cranking it too long

I hear buzzing after iignition on, on left from ignition module

fuel pump runs (tried disconnecting fuse 16 to disconnect pump)
There is spark, on a spare sparkplug connected to the wire and put on the engineblock

spraying quickstart does not make any change

the k jet plate is hard when i connect fuse 16, to prevent it from fuel floding again)

i cleaned the spark distributor and cap, didnt help

The idea of friend electritian is that i have no compression because the engine is cranking very fast, and after being floded with fuel it washed oil from between the piston rings. So i should crank with fuse 16 out, and than insert the fuse and it shoud start.

we already removed the sparks and heated them up with a torch, no improvement.

Im out of ideas

I have a guy coming today with tools to check fuel pressure and stroboscope light to check spark timing.
