engine swap from 89 to 93 jeep cherokee

The engine on my 1989 Jeep Cherokee died and I replaced it with a 1993 jeep Cherokee engine, everything seems to be fine except for the distributor. The distributor connection on the 89 is different than the 93. I Mickey mouse the connection to fit the 89. The engine started up and stayed on for about 3 minutes 5 different times. The engine then died and did not turn on anymore.

I would like to know if the distributor from the 93 will work well with the 89, was it wrong for me to try and make it work in that manner? Can anybody give me any ideas? Or does anybody know if this will just not work?
