not getting spark from spark plug.

not getting spark from spark plug.
I have a 95 GSR motor in my 94 Honda Del Sol. I just got done changing my radiator because just started leaking from the up portion of the radiator. After changing the radiator, I decide to change out my distributor cap and rotor, and even the spark plugs and wires. I started driving and suddenly lost all power (won't start up anymore). No spark from the spark plugs and the distributor still turns (can't have a broken timing belt). From the engine does the first cylinder start from 1 on the right (timing belt side) and end up four on the left (distributor side) 4-3-2-1...... my firing order is 1-4-3-2.
Looking at the distributor, it goes like this:
3 4
1 2
Can someone verify if this is correct.

not getting a spark
i know i have the correct firing order but the car won't start up. I pulled one of the spark plug and tried starting but there was no spark at all. Can anyone help me.

got a haynes manual? Work your way back from the spark plugs, if your coil is getting juice, you have no spark, and you dizzy looks ok, its probably the coil. If the coil is not getting juice follow that back, check your fuses, relays, etc. By the way, how do you know you don't have a spark?

reason why I know I don't get a spark is because I pulled one of the spark plug and tried ing the motor to see if there was a spark. Nothing. Distributor is turning but the coil is internal with the distributor. If the problem is with the distributor, how would the dizzy be?

you know you need to ground the spark plug to get a spark right? Even then it is can be hard to see in daylight, or you might not get a good enough ground for it to spark.
I'm just saying this because I've chased after "no spark" issues myself only to find out I actually did have a spark.
