car just shuts off, wants to start but it won't start.

 

Has any work been done on the car?

When were the spark plugs last changed? Also when were the distributor cap and distributor rotor replaced? Does your car have gas?

 

Two to three months ago, the spark plugs was change with some platinum, one of the spark plugs was screw but the plug for that spark plug was loose so we used the old spark plug for the plug to clip in. I don't know how long ago the distributor cap or distributor rotor has been replace. I recently just got the car not to long ago before all the spark plug changing. Yes, the car has gas a full tank. Any suggestion what might be wrong with the car why it's not starting and one more thing the starter is replaced too at the time the spark plug was changed.

 

You might have a loose or faulty electrical connection somewhere's under that hood.

A more serious thing could be a vacume leak at the gasket between the intake manifold and the throttle body..

Good luck with it.
