there are a few things to check, the oil pressure switch behind/next to the dist. will shut off the fuel pump if it detects no oil pressure or is loose. The module in the distributor can go bad and stop working if it overheats, use a fan to keep the dist cool and see if the car keeps running. monitor the voltages on the Mass air flow and TPS. this should get you started. Also a dirty clogged fuel filter will cause the fuel pump to overheat and shut off.
