I would suggest replacing it if someome stole it - otherwise if your car is young -look for causes of poor spark operations in the plug wires and related spark supply components. Usually, a distributor needs to be replaced when it is worn or malfunctioning and repair or rebuild of the distributor in no longer possible, or would cost more than replacing it.
Could be in need of a tune up consisting of replacing spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap, rotor, air and fuel filters.
Most common cause. Bad plug wires,distributor cap and rotor, Bad plugs. I would give it a GOOD tune-up
If the distributor cap, rotor, ignition wires and spark plugs check okay then I would suspect a faulty fuel injector.
There are two causes for this. The first thing would be the fuse could be blown, if this isn't the case then the relay switch will need replaced.
It could be out of time. It could be connected to the wrong plug in on the distributor. Check your wires for breaks in them.
Distributor cap & rotor button or spark plug wires may be bad. Coil could be weak.
Start with a bad Spark Wire Followd by a new Distributor Cap and Rotor button. Pening that failure, replace the sparks.
Sometimes it comes on when you have to replace your air filter due to it being dirty. It will also come on when the gas cap is not tightened or needs to be replaced.
