COMPRESSION TEST FOR VALE AND RING LEAKAGE. MAKE SURE TO TEST ALL CYLINDERS. YES IT'S A GOOD POSSIBILITY THAT YOU LOST YOUR TIMING. NEED TO CHECK THE TIMING WITH A TIMING LIGHT.IF THE VEHICLE HAS 90,000 + ON THE MOTOR IT IS WELL PAST TIME TO DO THE TIMEING BELT ON IT BEFORE YOU BEND A VALVE OR PUNCH A HOLE IN YOU PISTON.

I NEED WAY MORE INFO, BECAUSE THE STALLING HAS A MILLION POSSIBILITIES
Depending on the distributor used, it should be set from the factory..Check to see if the bolts that mount the distributor are in slotted holes. If not, then there is no adjustment possible. If so, check underhood sticker for timing specs and procedure.
Most of the handas have a pick up inside the distributor behind the rotor button take off the black cover inside the distributor and two screws hold it on with two wires on it. If that go's bad your car will not start i would start there
