92 canaro v8 stalling

So after I had my fuel system replaced my 92 v8 5.7 litre would stall for no reason but then would restart immediately, now it will not restart bcse its not sparking, there really is no pattern- sometimes it happens when it has been driven for awhile, sometimes it happens when it is low on gas...right now it sat overnite and let me start it but then it stalled right away and then again won't spark...any ideas?

Sounds like the ignition control module inside the distributor to me, but i may be wrong....

Re: 92 canaro v8 stalling

thnx luvmy64, i replaced that prior to the fuel sys being chngd out, could it need to be tweaked or maybe replaced again?
and what i replaced wasnt under the distributor, it as to the left of the carb...
it is attached to the block
aftr looking at the engine, when they did the fuel sys, they also did this (see pic) and then i still have the one attached to the block, i have swapped one in and anthr out- both out- both in and it still wont spark, but the new one they did looks as tho the pins are bent and the female end is damaged as well...?

ICM is actually INSIDE the distributor, under the rotor button. What you have pic's there is the CTS.
