Hey i'm Experiencing that Exact Same Problem.
I just posted about it. Randomly the Engine Dies.
I too have a 98 Honda Civic LX 150k Miles. So far I've replaced Fuel Filter, Air Filter, Plugs, Plug Wires, Dist Cap And dist Rotor. Much to my dismay nothing has resolved it. I'm hoping the experts can shine a light on it If you have heard anything or you have found something that resolved it Please let me know. I've Been told it's either ICM=igni cont module, ECU the computer or the distrubuter. I'm leaning towards ICM or ECU because Under normal Circumstances the dist would cause issues then just fail.

I can offer a couple of thoughts. First, when the car does its I don't want to run thing, check the wires to see if spark it present to the plugs. Then if it is present, is there gas being supplied to the cylinders. If you have those items, I might suspect the distributor or the crank sensor. The cam sensor is located in the distributor.
