It started happening today. My car would suddenly die after quick accerations. This happend at a red light, on the highway a few times. It felt like it was running on 3 cylinders. I did a compression test it came out 210 straight across. I checked my oil and it was half a quart low. So I added half a quart and then it ran good for about 7 minutes and died on a turn and wouldnt restart for about a minute. It would turn over and go to about 1k where it idles then it would die. I got it started and it ran normally on the way home, but I didnt push it any. Please help.

 

Sounds like ignition

 

bing, my distributor had oil in it. I replaced with my hatches distributor and it ran great.
