Default Please help! No spark!

So I had 1 day of joy in my new h22 integra, finally got it finished and went to drive it and it was a BEAST and it drove fine got it home, turned it off, then came out next morning to drive it and it just kept cranking over and wouldn't start, everything was fine, except there's no spark. I onl checked 2 spark plugs but I figured if this 2 wern't gettin any spark then the other ones wouldnt eather? My question is what is the most likely cause of my problem? I'm baffled why it would go bad during the middle of the night, everything else I checked, so what's the most likely cause why it's not getting any spark? Thanks for any help!

I would check the igniter, if I knew how to get to it. I took the cap off, and I see the rotor but theres a black plastic casing covering everything and I can't get it off, I'm not the best at diagnosing this kinda of a problem , I'm only 17 but I did almost my entire h22 swap by myself, I just hope I don't have to take it somewhere to get fixed cause I'm broke, almost. As for sanding down the cap and rotor, guess I'll try that, it would be nice if it was something simple, Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it!!! And keep em coming.

you have to take off the rotor and the black cover
the igniter is in there
while your there you should check the coil too
the only way to test the igniter is to use a known good one
