Default my car is F'ed up.... help!

Hey guys.... I have a 92 civic hatch with a stock D16z6, and it keeps dying. I replaced the starter on it about a week ago ($250) b/c at first it wouldn't start, and now it starts fine, but it dies after a few minutes of idling.... It idles between 650-750 rpm's and then just dies. Sometimes it won't start for a few minutes after it has died. I sanded the metal strip on my rotor, b/c it was pretty corroded, and it still does the same thing! Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

check all grounds...fuel pump...ignitor...if you can't diagnose it, get a factory service manual...if that doesn't work replace the cheapest parts first.
