Default code 16

i have a stock d15b2 and today i was driving and the car started idling weird then all of a sudden died. started it back up then i noticed everytime i took it over 3000 rpm it would start bogging then it died and would not start. checked the codes and got a code 16, but like for the past week my distributor has been making a low pitch sqeal so i had an extra distro handy and changed it out when it died and the car started up no problem, i know code 16 is the injectors but what i wanted to know was could bad injectors make my dizzy go out or what do you guys think?

maybe it was code 15 which is ignitor. if a dpfi car throws a code 16 and still drives it is most likely the fuel pump. if one of the injectors stops working then the engine dies.

you think having the distro too retarded or too advanced could have caused the distro to go out?
