1996 Dodge Ram 1500 Sport Bucks around, lights on the dash flicker, and trucks stalls

Thank you very much for the advice. The only reason I didn’t suspect we got the cap on wrong is because i put the cap on wrong b4 and it tore off the end of the rotor. And plus my uncle also put this rotor on. But will double check anyway cause I’m going to pull cap rotor module and wires. To try and see what my problem is exactly.
the dude previous to you actually got the original problem fixed, it would buck and stall, flicker the lights on the dash like it was electrical. After I disconnected the 02 sensor it drove fine for a ride to town and then just wouldn’t fire as soon as I got out the store. I was at the store for like 20 mins came back out and it wouldn’t fire. That’s what’s ****ing me up about this thing, it’s like we keep finding a fix, it works, then it seems to start with the same problem all over again, this time it’s gotten worse actually. Cause the truck wouldn’t stall immediately, you’d have to pull out of the driveway and get down the road a couple of feet before it would start to stall. Now it stalls almost immediately. Rough time starting it too and I’ve never had that, I’ve only had it stalled out too many times it would take a few cranks to fire. So I’m suspecting that the new cap and rotor I just bought is junk.
