Spare connector is for the carbon cannister control valve, which you don't have.
How dead is dead?
Check, with a 12V lamp, for 12V+ on the + terminal of the ignition coil when the ignition is on and when you are cranking.
Take a plug out, reconnect it to the lead and lay it on the rocker cover. Check that it sparks once every two turns of the engine when cranking.
Disconnect a fuel supply hose (one that comes from the filter) and check that petrol pumps out when cranking.
