Default 89 DX not Firing...???

Ok, ive got an 89 DX hatch.. with stock 1.5L. I am trying to get it ready to sell, but i cant get it to crank. The car is not firing at all, meaning that when i try to crank, there is no spark on the plugs/wires. Any ideas what this may be? Its got a brand new rotor in the dist. and the dist cap is clean. I tried changing the wires around, cause im not positive of the firing order, but no help there. I really need to get this car running as soon as possible. can anyone help me out, just a little???

thanks either way

I would probably blame the ignitor if its not firing,Especially if it says "OKI"
on it..
{the crx was factory re-called for this part if produced by that manufacturer}

Most likely internal distributor problem.
