94 Integra starting problem

My friend and I just changed the timing belt & water pump on his 94 Integra
1.8.  Got it back together, it started w/a bump and ran nice and smoothly
for a couple of minutes while he was topping off the coolant and then it
just stopped.  It stopped smoothly - no clunks or bangs or anything.
The motor turns over but won't start.
We're not getting any spark but the distributor is turning.
Thought it might be some sensor picking up low coolant that shut the motor
off, so we disconnected the battery cable (again) then retried it w/no
change.
I've done a couple of dozen Honda timing belt changes in my day w/no
problems.
Any ideas?

We replaced the coil and it runs fine.
We disconnected the neg cable the whole time we worked on it and we
reconnected all ground straps before starting it.  Any ideas on why it
failed?
Maybe just coincidence?

Maybe the igniter died.(causes a no-spark fault)
