Default Car will not start anymore!!

Car will not start anymore!!
Just installed a B16A OBD1 into 94 EX.
Started car after putting the new motor in and it started fine.
Over the course of about an hour, the car had been turned on and off about 5 times, during the last time the car was on it began to idle lower and lower until it completely died.
Now the car will not turn on. It is getting fuel, the battery is good; when attempting to start the car it turns but never catches.

I pulled the spark plug and wires out and I am not getting any spark. What's going on?

also check your ignition coil which is inside of the dizzy, that happened to me a few times.

My wires where in the proper order, however, my ignitor went bad as we discovered this by swapping it w/ a known working ignitor.
Engine starts and runs fine now.

Thanks
