Default BIG PROBLEM-help?

ok guys, i have a 90 dx hatch with a gen 1 b16, i blew the block so i bought a new 1 and put it in, It started on the first Crank, then i back it out the garage, about to drive off then it shut off,Ok i knew it was the dizzy..I changed the coil the next day, started right up..I was happy, i drove it about 5 mins away from where i was at, i parked it and let it warm up, then i was about to take off, Then it shut off again.Bought a new coil then it didnt start up, So i was like ****, so i went to go buy a new dizzy (BRAND NEW).. put it on, then it did not start.. What Can it BE??

I know i drive a EF but the guys in the EF forum show no love, or help
-thanks

Usually when a car acts up you should check the following 3:

Are you getting fuel, spark, then check the timing.

Then trouble shoot from there.

when you replace the coil, also check into the ignitor. just about any b series coil will work for you

the ignitor is inside of the dizzy, there are three (if i remember correctly) wires goin to it. when youre taking your coil out, just look for a little wafer looking think. its not very big at all
