Re: Civic won't start! is it the ignitor?

If you take the 2 wires off the coil and hook a low voltage bulb (like interior dome light) to it, then crank the car, the light should flash. That means the ignitor is good and the coil is bad if not getting spark. You should replace both because they usually go bad around the same time.
