Icon2 Acura integra 90 ls starter relay problems

Hello, im new to the forums, and cars completely.

So i bought this 90 acura integra ls it did not run to start with, so i tracked the problem down to a distributor and starter relay. I bought a whole new distributor as half the old one was missing... and then took apart the starter relay and fixed it by re-soldering the joints on it and it ran, but very very rough.
After it gets hot it dies, not sure why. and now it wont run at all...
could me fixing the starter relay not be enough? should i buy a new one?
EDIT: the engines compression is 120 on all 4 and it has about 200k miles on it
also wondering if it just needs rebuit
thanks in advance for the help

Set idle once warm
IDLE SCREW IS LOCATED ON THROTTLE BODY....
unplug iacv then tap the throttle and let rpms settle
once settled keep an eye on your rpms
adjust the idle screw until you have about 750 + or - 50 rpms
tap throttle and recheck..
plug back in iacv and clear codes if any
start car and see if that helps.
CLEAN ALL ENGINE GROUNDS!
Do you have a check engine light?
you may also want to look into adjusting your valve lash...
