I have a Toyota Camry (95). I've put in two new distributors in the past 2 weeks, each one lasts 2-3 days, then I no longer get a spark. The first time I ran it (sitting still) for about 30 minutes and then the car cut off and wouldn't start again. The second one, I drove it around all day, parked and turned off the car, and then it wouldn't start again.

I assume what is happening is that you are burning out the igniters. This is what Toyota calls the Ignition Control Module. The one thing that can overload that component is a coil that is drawing too much current. I would replace the coil also and that should stop that.
