try another distributor. Your ICM (Ignition Control Module) could have gone bad.

The car ran fine before but ....it did die sometimes when it would rev too low or when I would put the car in neutral when the car was moving.

If your distributor is getting power, it's likely the ICM as was mentioned or the igniter.
