I had this problem once with a Cherokee and it turned out that the oil filter housing had a small crack in it that would only leak when driven and built up pressure in the oil system, and it was almost impossible to detect.
Check your crank sensor. It is located on the drivers side of the transmission where the flywheel is.
electronic spark modulator bad.
try to get a new ignition rotor
How about the plug cables? Check connections at distributor and harness, and they should generally be replaced at the same time as the plugs.
The most common failure associated with those symptoms is the Crankshaft Position Sensor.
did you try the control module or the switch just behind the dash on top of the steering column
IT IS A BAD IGNITOR ON THE INSIDE OF THE DISTRIBUTOR.

My 1995 Nissan Quest is acting really strange. It is acting like its either misfiring or not getting enough gas and wants to cut out on me and it jerks sometimes hard. What could it be. I put new plugs and wires in, and just replaced the distributor cap and rotor for the distributor cap.
Is it getting spark?, if it isn't getting spark to the plugs and you have a HEI distributor the ignition control module could be blown, take cap off and replace the module, it's the thing with the wires plugged to it inside the distributor.
Check the fuel pump, rotor, and distributor cap.
when your radiator blew up did it get coolant all over your distributor cap? it might have cracked from being hot and getting fluid on it, does the motor roll over when you try to start it or are you getting nothing?
