I have seen distributors that had bad tdc sensors inside them, and the car still ran. So that should answer your question.

So why did you replace the battery, sounds like a distributor problem.

i would swap in a known good distributer, check all grounds, and double check the battery is hooked up all good! never hurts to take a part and put back together.
