Default b16 not starting PLEASE HELP!!!!

my car has a b16 in it was running fine until sunday afternoon I went out to start it and it idled fine for about 20-30 sec then completely shut down. It will turn over fine just won't start. so I went in this oder of what I replaced Cap, Rotor, spark plugs, igniter, wires, coil, and it still won't start cause i'm not getting spark.
tell me what it could be I'm thinking my ecu.
how do I read trouble codes???
could the Ecu be telling the motor not to start because something else is wrong??

please help I've wasted like 200 bucks and i'm sick of riding the bus. thanx

Whoa buddy stop throwing parts at it and wasting money, If your going to work on your car the best advice I can suggest is use the money to buy a manual so you can learn how to read codes and take troubleshooting steps that the manual will help you out with. If I were to guess at what your problem is I would say it would be an ignitor, but I strongly suggest double checking my guess and buying a manual and learning how to use it

if it is not your ignitor then it is either your blaster coil or your module within the distributor. like DA MUGEN 1 said i also urge you to get the manuel. you can test your blaster coil by using a ohem meter. or you can take it to schucks and they can do it for you. as far as testing the module you would have to take it in to a shop and have them look at it with a scope. good luck
