That's usually the classic symptoms of a bad ballast resistor circuit. When you're cranking, the solenoid bypasses the ballast resistor, but as soon as you let go of the key, the solenoid is no longer energized and the current to the coil is through the ballast resistor instead. If there's a short in that circuit (like a bad ballast resistor) you get no spark.
