i check that with a electronic light spark plug tester ,also check the ignitorand coil by putting them in other honda 97 honda civic sohc and that car started fine. I M thinking its some thing else in the distributor or ecu went bad? thanks for ur input any way.

...may sound stupid/simple but make sure there's no moisture at all in the dist-cap. I had a car fail that way.
