Default Engine dies at random

So as the title says, my engine dies at random while im driving. I have a single cam ZC, and everything under the hood is stock. When the engine dies, the car throws up a check engine light and gives me code 15. does anyone have any input for me? I recently had a problem where the tachometer needle was bouncing around as i went up through the rev range, but I replaced my coil and ignitor and that problem went away.

Something is still wrong in your distributor - code 15 is ignition output signal. Try swapping in a known good distributor.

You use Honda parts, or some crap from napa? Still in the dizzy somewhere.
