Default Is the distributor bad when...

the car has been randomly stalling the last few days. i noticed one of the plug wires was a little corroded/cooked, so I replaced them, and the plugs, and the cap/rotor. still was stalling. I ran an obd2 scanner and it said that it was a lack of signal. I pulled the distributor and replaced the ignitor . while I had the distributor out, I noticed that the end that goes onto the cam is real wobbly. since I don't have another one to compare it to, I can't tell if its bad or not. what do you think?

I'd say there's a good chance the dizzy's going out.

well, I went to buy a replacement distributor, and the end on it was as wobbly as the one in the car, so that can't be it. the tach isn't bouncing all over the place, so I don't think its the coil, and I replaced the igniter, plugs, wires, cap, and rotor. still not fixed.

could it be the throttle position sensor?
