Recently my car overheated, smoked excessively and died. I took it to a mechanic where they were able to start it right up and drive it a little. They changed the plugs and wires and installed new valve cover gasket. However, they said the car has distributor problems. Does this sound right? How much would it costs and how long can I drive the vehicle before it gets worse.

If there's a problem with the distributor I don't think they could take it for a test drive, my advice is get out of there fast and don't look back
