No Ignition!! Help Please!!!!

Well, last night on my way to work I was moving along in my leisurely little manner when my 88 TII decides to shut itself down. i nearly **** myself, i thought it had locked up because the oil buzzer went off earlier. i look down at the gauges and the tach is on 0. so, i drop the clutch to see if i can get it started and the tach never moves although the motor is rotating. ****! ignition problem. Cant be too hard. so, i scramble some parts up from a few local friends and in no time i had the crank angle sensor, both coils and the computer replaced. NO LUCK! i still have no ignition and i have no idea what else to check. please give me some suggestions. i've never had a FC incident where there was no ignition. Even the FSM doesnt give **** on the ignition. one piece of info that might help is my tach isnt moving at all. when i start it, it stays on 0. so, the tach isnt picking up on anything. AHHH!!! HELP.

I know it might sound stupid, but did you check the efi fuses?
