 When i got my 88 924s which has the 944 motor it did not have spark either, here are all the things that could be wrong. 
 There are 2 crank sensors that are located near the fire wall center engine for the most part. Haynes manual will tell you where they are. It will also tell you there resistance, they can be checked quite simply with a multi meter. they often go bad and are a simple replacement.
 
 The harnes may be bad but that sounds un likely if the car was running. The next part is the computer. This is where i had my issue. The coil takes a 12-24 volt square wave. if you have an oscilloscope, connect it to the 2 terminals on the coil and you should see a square wave. If you are getting a square wave then make sure it is a 12 volt square wave. If you are not getting one then you may have a computer issue. The coil is pulsed by a transistor connected to the ground of the coil. This transistor can go bad relatively easy. There are some places that rebuild the computers, ill see if i can find out where i had mine rebuilt.
 
 if you are getting the proper square wave at the coil then it may be the coil, if you have a multimeter they can be tested. center to terminal should be about 10k ohms and terminal to terminal should be around 1 ohm
 
 good luck
