im not sure if the 77 had a ignition module.. but thats the most typical cause of your problem... its a lil black plastic box attached to your distributer.. if they replaced the distributer they prolly didnt replace the ignition module... but you might want to have that checked out...

the two main items to check are ignision spark and fuel pressure. when the car stals pull the coil wire from the disturibetor and hold approx 1/4 inch from grounded surface ck for spark while turning over the engine.
