Engine shut off while driving, Checked fuel pump, filter, relay all ok. Engine cranks but not firing. Replaced distributor cap and rotor, still no fire. Next changed crank sensor, still no fire. Timing belt ok as are all fuses, Help!!

No information except 2000 Civic. No miles, no engine type, no trans type, nothing.

And yet I can still suggest that the crankshaft position sensor has failed.

You told us about fuel, but what you need to know is fuel pressure and is the fuel getting to the cylinders. And is there spark getting into the cylinders.
