FIXING A NO START

This is a 1995 Acura Integra 1.8 twin cam. It died while driving. The first thing I check since it's easiest is spark http://www.youtube.com/user/MYFASTDAD?feature=mhee#p/a/u/1/6KpPEiMT-G8.  If there is no spark, then I proceeded to make sure the cams were turning by removing the valve cover. I did this to also check the condition of the timing belt which is critical on this engine. All is good so then I installed a rebuilt unit and checked for spark again http://www.youtube.com/user/MYFASTDAD?feature=mhee#p/a/u/0/wnzd5Kf4yhw. As long as everything was good I did a complete tune also. It's getting cold so it makes good sense to do that now. It works great so it can go back on the road with confidence.
