Default no spark need some help

someone help, im not getting spark. mini me converted to obd1 using p28. wiring is all correct. replaced the ignition coil and ignitor 4 times with good ones. spark plugs wires are good. when i take the dizzy out and put it back in and crank, it will start but die quickly, then after that, no spark. anyone have any ideas????

i tested my coil and im getting zero resistance between the + and - terminals, the manual says it should have .6-.8. how do i know if my coil or igniter is bad?!?!?!

also this is on a crx but no one in the ef forum seems to have any idea.

have you tried replacing the coil?if you're following the test procedures,and it's failing,it may very well be your problem.

thats the thing i dont understand, i replaced the coil with 4 different ones, and two came off of a good dizzy that i had spark with only a day before. in the manual it says the resistance needs to be between .6-.8, on the ones i have i get zero resistance (maybe im using my meter wrong), so then i checked the dizzy thats in my car right now (my daily driver) and i get zero resistance on that one too (that car runs tho), so i dont know ???
