No good reasons why 98 QX4 won't spark other than distributor

[meyersk76]

1998 QX4......At least that's what the 2 hour diagnosis was from the shop. I've tried to read up on as many MAF/fuel pump issues related to the truck not turning over. It died while I was driving no more than 30 mph the other day and would not crank ever since. Battery good, starter good, alt good, etc. I just hadn't found a post stating the distributor may be a cause for it. I'm going with the flow of the shop here since the g/f needs the truck to drive. He quoted me $520 for it. infinitipartsusa.com has one for $265. Advanced auto has one for $300 and it's local. QX4 has 150K on speedo. Does this diagnosis sound legit?
