As far as why that I paid them even though they 'broke' the part, was because they said that the part was so worn that it sort of just broke on its own as they were removing the distributor cap. I don't see how that is possible, but I'm also not a mechanic.
I had two choices : Pay for a tow truck to tow my now dead car home and try and fix the problem myself, or pay the money and hope that the shop actually fixed it.
