Thumbs down 89' Civic DX Hatchback won't start

I am having problems getting my 89' Honda civic DX Hatchback (Automatic) to run. First it wouldn't start at all and I changed the fuel pump, but it wasn't the fuel pump. So I checked my timing belt and it was fine. I checked my fuel lines to see if I was getting gas, and then I found the roter was broken, so I changed the roter. And it started, and ran for 1/2 a mile and died. Then I changed the ignition module, the coil, and the cap. And now it doesn't start at all. Please help!

check fuses, and do you hear the fuel pump hummm for 2 secs when you first turn key on?

94civichatchback: I checked the fuses, they're good, and the fuel pump does run for 2 seconds. Sorry for taking so long.

Check for spark at the plugs.
