Im on my 5th distributor in a month
alright, my original OEM distributor went out on my 92 si, I promptly went and picked up a ReMan one from the local parts house for 180.00 . It lasted about a week, then abouit 3 days , and now a day. They told me they would give me my money back and I would have to go somewhere else. So i went and got a "new" one for 240.00 and It lasted two days and when i turned the car off it just wouldnt turn back on so i got it towed home. now today(2 days after the tow) i went outside to pull it out and go get a new one with my warranty and figured i would try to crank it and sure as **** it fired up. So i drove it wround for about 20 minutes and then it died on me again. I dont know what it is for sure but I think when it dies its because something to do with the ignition is overheating. this is my 5th sitributor in a month. I NEED HELP
