Default !990 teg drivin me crazy

Ok i have spent the majority of the day looking over this forum for a problem like mine, cant come up with anything definite tho. I have a 220,000 mile 4 dr 1990 acura teg. So, yesterday after driving my car about 10 minutes it shut off going about 50mph after i started from a stop sign (not under hard throttle btw). Only thing odd leading up to this, is the car was producing a white smoke under hard, high rpm, throttle. Now it will not start, it turns over really strong, but just wont start up. Tach doesnt even jump when you turn it over....

Since getting it back to the house and checking a few things, it has no spark or fuel. Fuel pumps not even humming, nothing. Pulled a plug, done a check and no spark either. Checked main relay, clicks when key is turned on (guessing that means its working properly). Fuses under hood and dash are good. Pulled valve cover, timing belt still tight and in one piece - cams turnin good - seems the motor itself is workin properly.

I dunno if there is another electrical connection that would pretty much shut everything down if it goes bad or what.... but im startin to run out of ideas. Lights, horn, radio, interior lights, everything else in the car works as normal. Any ideas of something i can check?
