No the thing that the rotor goes on to

Check your fuel injectors, that was my problem once. And check to see if your fuel main relay is going bad. Some stop working when the car gets warm enough.

Yeah you have some homework to do.

1. Check battery terminals
2. Replace the Fuel Main Relay (due for the fact that it's a cheap replacement)
3. See if you have and stored DTC's
4. Test drive
5. Then just save up and replace that distributor.

Good Luck on this one.

And how do I check my fuel injectors ?

egdro

Do a fuel pressure test, your gonna need a fuel pressue test guage and a switch to open each injector manually.

Is your check engine light on?

jonina

I did it the ghetto way but you'll be 100% sure after. I pulled out the fuel injectors from the head but leave them in the fuel rail, point them out towards the front end and put plastic bottles infront of them so the gas shots inside Of them. Have someone crank the engine and check that all the injectors are spraying and spraying same amount too.

When I first bought my DX it did the same thing. Driving fine then out of nowhere it would fall on its face and start running really rough. Never would die, but wouldn't hardly pull itself. I'd have to pull over and kill the car for 10 minutes or so before I could drive on. It was the main relay going out. They're cheap, so that would be the first thing I'd try.

No check engine light at all just comes on when my car turns off and cool ill try the injector test and the main relay ill try first but there not cheap there like 50 bucks at autozone unless any of u guys know some where cheaper

Plz and thank you for ur guys help

So this is a update guys well i drive my car the whole day today fine with no problems when the sun was up but as soon as it got dark I say after 3 miles my car bogs for a quick sec and my car shuts off of course I have to pull over once again and then I decided to switch my fuel main relays with my friend cuz he's running the same car same engine but anyways when my friends good main relay it still shut off anys and more and more times after that an I drove with it at least 5 miles didn't fix the problem so the main relay isn't my answer cuz changin it didn't approve or fix the problem so step 2?

And my problem seems to occur at night the most

You need to get that old rotor off. Use a dremel tool and small cutting wheel and cut a little slot in it then pry with a screwdriver to break it off or squirt some pb blaster on it and pull it off with vise grips.
Fresh rotor may make a big difference.

crowscare

Forsure I will try that thank you I will keep u updated

So it's mostly my dizzy?
