Default why is this thing not starting

(first post)

I got a 94 del sol 1.6 dohc v-tec
i got it from a buddy , when he had it it was burning coils all to often.
the car was sitting for a year and someone cut the distributer harness the one with like 8 wires , so i had to hard wire them to the harness. And the car started and ran great now it took a crap on me and wont even start. I put a new coil in it and it still wont start , what the hell is wrong with this thing one minute its running great and now it wont even pull a good spark. please o please if you can help it would be much apperciated

ps it was sparking just like really really weak orange ones.
