Hi, My car has been missing pretty bad. After about a month I got into my car to go somewhere and it would not crank. My husband replaced the distributor thinking that would fix the problem but the car will still not crank. Do you have any suggestions? It seems to be running the battery down when we try to crank it now too.

Well the battery is dying down because you keep on trying to crank the vehicle.

If the vehicle is indeed cranking over but not starting you must check for proper fuel pressure and good start spark.
