Default Another car not starting thread... Thank you for your time.

Hey fellas, I have a 93' Sol with a 95 GSR motor in it. My car recently died and had to replace the distributor and spark plugs and checked the wires. The wires are MSD and are only about a year old. After a week or so, it died again. This time i replaced the main relay. The other day when getting out of class the car died on me again, but this time after sitting for a while it started back up. I had a small sputter issue at times, but otherwise it got me home fine. I have no ECU codes, I just don't know where to begin checking. All my fuses and relays are working fine and everything seems to be getting power. I only use the car to go to school and probably only sees about 30 miles a week. I hardly use it, but this issue is really pissing me off. Any input is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

i would check for spark first. did u put a new or rebuilt distributor in it. i have had several rebuilt ones fail prematurely, within a year i'd say. if good spark, check fuel pressure.
