Default Car sputters/misfires after it has warmed up

'91 Accord LX 2 door 5 speed
201K miles
throws a code for TDC sensor and sputters after its warmed up. Checked the Distributor, looks brand new. New plug wires, pulled plugs and noticed that they were pretty whitish. I'll hopefully pick up a timing light this weekend and check that but I still dont understand how the car only does this after about 10 minutes of driving. Any insight?

Thanks guys!

Well, that goes without saying but the plugs and wires were just replaced, and the cap and rotor look new along with the distributor.
