HELP! 94 Civic - stalls and complete electrical power loss
I have a 94 V Tech Honda Civic which I love. Since I bought it I've had to change the distributor 3 times because I've been left on the street. The car just powers down while driving, giving the car has was useless and non of the elctricals worked. I recently just put in a third (new) distributor in and drive for the first time without any actual problems.
My issue is that I don't have any confidence while driving the car because I'm scared that it will power off again. Is there anything else that can possibly be causing the problem and/or is there anything I can do to alter the outcome this time?
Thanks for any and all responses!

A bad distributor would not cause the car to lose all electrical power. And the fact that you have already installed three distributors tells you they're not the problem.
Start here:
-test the ignition switch.
-clean and tighten the battery connectors and the battery ground wire attached to the chassis.

sounds kind of silly, but my buddy had the exact same problem... he claimed to always need a jump for his car after it would die... he told me about the problem... I went out and tightened his battery terminals... no problem at all since then
Car left me stranded this weekend again. I was driving home from work and all off a sudden the RPM went from 2000 to 0. The radio, headlights, wipers and a/c still functioned but the car itself wouldn't function.
I try to start the car but car again but it sounds like it wants to start but it won't spark and turn on. As I turn the key to start the at the distributor makes a rattling sound, another fried piece.
Idk what is frying my new distributors.
