Check that the vacuum pipe that goes onto your ecu is connected and there are no leaks. The ecu uses that to calculate the timing and without it, you use a lot more fuel and over all ride affected.

I would recommend checking for codes before you do anything else.
Is it hard to change a distributor in a Nissan Pathfinder?
A distributor is not hard to change as long as you follow some simple rules: (1) Set number one piston at Top Dead Center (TDC) before starting the job. (2) Make marks on the distributor and the engine so you will be able to match the two marks when re-installing the distributor. (3) DO NOT crank or manually rotate the engine while the distributor is out. The rest of the job is removing nuts or bolt and wires in order to pull the distributor out. NOTE: When pulling out and when re-installing the distributor, you will have to rotate it somewhat - just follow the "feel" as you go. PS: You don't want to forget the order of the plug wires to the distributor - it might be a good idea to tape and mark the wires as you pull them. You also want to observe which direction the rotor is pointing before you remove the distributor (an added precaution).

I once replaced the distributor and worked to clean the battery posts and all sorts of stuff before finally realizing it was a blown ignition fuse. Van would turn over but not start. replaced the 35 cent fuse and I was on my way..

How do you disconnect the spark plug wires from distributor?
Just firmly grasp the plug wire where it connects into the distributor and gently twist it side to side while pulling upwards and the plug wire should pop off the distributor..It may take a little effort to remove since the connectors on the plug wire snap down into the distributor and the rubber boot on the plug wire may stick to the plastic on the distributor...be sure to note the firing order of the cylinders before removing any wires from the distributor...this is usually found stamped or printed on the top of the engine or in the engine compartment.. An Example of a firing order stamp is 1-4-6-8-7-3-2-5 (< do not use this one)
What does tune up mean?
A basic tune-up would involve replacing the spark plugs and possibly the plug wires. The fuel filter may be replaced and all fluid levels checked. Before electronic ignition systems it also meant to replace the points, rotor, condenser, and inspecting the distributor cap.A basic tune-up would involve replacing the spark plugs and possibly the plug wires.

Why does the fuel pump you recently replaced on your 1994 Chevy Caprice not run until the car has been turning over for 10 seconds or more?
