if you are sure its ignition related then start troubleshooting.

make sure you are getting fuel...are the plugs wet with gasoline?

Re: 98 civic turns over but doesnt start
A motor needs 3 things to run. Air/fuel/spark. Make sure you are getting fuel, then check the spark. If one of those 2 things are not there then that is the issue. Let us know what tests you have done and we'll go from there.
