Default acura integra wont run any more after bad idle 1.8 litter

The car tends to have a bad idle, it fluctuates between 1500 to 200 rpms.
It feels like its choking out, and has no power. It now just doesn't start or idle. But when it made it past the bad idle it ran great.

I changed the distributor cap, roter, fuel filter, and also cleaned the idle control valve,and it has spark. Any ideas?

and its a 1990

why are you in engine management section?
just because its cleaned doesnt mean its working properly.(IACV)
try another one.

have you checked your timing?

incorrect timing will affect idle speed because ecu tries to compensate for it and bounces.
is there fuel in gas tank? how old is the fuel?
do you have equipment to troubleshoot it?(fuel pressure gauge, timing light etc)
