Icon2 Car keeps shutting off . HELP!!!

So I have a 1990 Civic LX with a d16y7 in it. Still on DPFI.

Anyways before the car was turning on with no problem. But now it takes time to turn on, and it'll turn on but then the RPMs drop and it shuts off. I have to keep Reving it in order for it to stay on. What can it be?

did it ever run with the dual point? you should swap to multi point. could be the fact of the ecu timing and/or compression limits
