'00 Honda Civic Lx crank but won't start

I have a 2000 honda civic lx that gave out error code P1457 for about 3 months. Now the car cranks but won't start; the battery is fine and alternator was recently changed; Any suggestions?

Check for fuel, check for spark.
Could be main relay, or something in the distributor, need to see if you get fuel or spark though.
The P1457 is an evap code, won't prevent the car from starting.

No spark, need a new distributor. Thanks
