Default No Spark No Fire

I'm not getting any spark to the Distributor.I've changed it 3 times thinking it was bad. I changed the coil and the transistor. Still no spark or fire. It started once, after that It just won't turn over. It's a 1995 Nissan Altima. Looks good for the year, and i've tried everything. I really need my car and living on this island you can't really get any help. Can someone please offer me some other advice. I really appreciate it Thanks.

i changed the cap and took a rotor from another distrubator. It's like no power is gettin to it. I dunno if it's the coil or the transistor i changed them all.Used a test light and all the wires have power going to them. Your familiar with the inside of an 1995 nissan altima engine? The 4 wires that plug into the distrubator, the ones that are colour coded. Do you know if power goes to all of those wires or just one of them? The wires are black, orange,yellow and green i think.
