Default Car shuts off while driving 99 accord dx

Car shuts off while driving
I got a tune up and replaced distributor

Radio is still on, but the engine just dies and I have to coast over to the side
Radio stays on the whole time
I can start the car as soon as I get to the sid eof the roas again

any ideas

Yep the actual ignition was faulty.

Next time it happens try wiggling the key, but I would talk to your dealer ASAP to see if your car qualifies for the recall. If not check your battery terminals, alternator connections and fuses.
