My CRV stalls while driving and will not restart until it sits for a while...

What is your question?

While driving it will stall, I have tried pop starting but it will not work. I can turn the ignition over numerous times before finally killing the battery. But, then usually after sitting a while it will start and run for a while. It has happened numerous times while out driving. Just brought it into someone (they checked why the engine light was on) and they say it comes up as a problem with the catalytic converter. That they had just replaced for ($800) and the muffler ($400). Now I'm told the need to replace the entire distributor... ($500) What would you say is the problem?????? Thank you!!!!
