Icon5 Car Wont Start

I drive a 1994 Honda Del Sol. I was pulling out of a parking spot when the car suddenly stalled. I tried turning the car back on and it wouldn't start. I took it back home and I changed the distributor along with the spark plugs. The car still wont turn on. I can hear the pump priming when I turn the key and I can hear the main relay click as well. I disconnected the fuel filter and I verified that there was fuel pressure too. I tried using engine starter fluid to no avail. I believe the car wont start due to no spark but, what else can I check? Where else could the problem be located?

Is your cel light coming on during startup procedure? Did you clock the distributor correctly before installing?

The check engine light does come on, along with the battery light and the oil pressure light but after about 5 seconds it goes away. How would I know if I clocked the distributor the right way? How would I fix that?

Check for spark.
