What exactly is messing up in the distributors? If you don't know, then could the problem lie elsewhere, contradicting your assumption?

Electrical issues are not something that can easily be identified by googling the web, or posting in a forum, diagnose needs to be done and some visuals as well. Wires could be melting and crossing each other, we don't know. So unless you post up details of what you have done to your car, in the past or in the last couple days before this started, all we can do is say what you just said. "Exactly we dont know why your distributors keep messing up"

The car had a misfire cylinder 4 and a p1399 code so i changed the plugs wires and i got a new distributor because it was getting no spark then with the new distributor it turned on and next day again no spark changed the grounds to the harness and another distributor anf it worked for about two days and then again no spark

Yeah distributor or the coil but gets no spark i put a different distributor and it works for a couple days but then lossres separk

You need to consider that the underlying problem may not be the distributor.

Are the plugs, plug wires, cap, rotor new?

Are you installing new or used distributors?

The more detailed information you provide, the more help you'll get.

... And yet, you drug up a four year old thread to basically bash someone just like you claim was done to another poster... on your VERY FIRST POST. I fail to see how you are being a helpful, productive member of this forum.

Because its a troll post. Probably by another dumb member masking his actual IP with a VPN. Don't fall for it.
