Question: car keeps dieing for no reason

I RECENTLY HAD TIMING BELT REPLACED, RADIATOR, RADIATOR HOSES, WATER PUMP, 02 SENSOR, TERMASTAT, BRAKES, THOSE PARTS WERE ALL BRAND NEW NOW I ALSO GOT A DISTRIBUTOR USED. MY BOYFRIEND AND I INSTALLED THE DISTRIBUTOR OUR SELF. IM PRETTY MECHANICALLY INCLINED TO THE POINT WERE THE DISTRIBUTOR MAY ONLY BE OFF BY A HAIR. NOW WOULD THIS CAUSE THE CAR TO DIE AFTER ONLY DRIVING FOR 10-15 MINS THEN HAVE TO WAIT 30-45 MINS B4 IT WILL STATE AGAIN. IT JUST STARTED DOING THIS A WEEK AGO. REPLACED DISTRIBUTOR WEEK IN A HALF TWO WEEKS PRIOR. PLZ HELPED IM STUMPED!!!
