hi,l my car stutters rides rough, and when i really step into it, it turns off, it starts back up fine then runs a good 20 minutes then starts to shake and a little then stop..... a shop told me it was the distributor because it was eating through the rotter and then later they told me i needed to change the whole distributor, does this sound like that could be the problem or could it be something else??

Sounds more like a fuel problem-check the fuel pressure to rule out a weak fuel pump
