92 Civic Power Loss and Idle Issues

Not only does my 92 civic idle kinda rough, it has power loss. Usually after running for a while the power loss isnt bad but it still idles rough. Sometimes all the sudden on acceleration it has TOTAL power loss in any gear. So i just push in the clutch and give it gas and it goes away. Can anyone help me? I recently replaced a coolant temp sensor cuz the engine light test said it was kaput. But so far I just got no clue. Changed wires and plugs. Considered the cap. Shouldn't be the timing. The engine idling rough isn't my biggest concern cuz the engine has 180k miles on it. My big concern is the power loss. I still don't know whats wrong. UPDATE- I can drive it and i will be in 3rd gear and it suddenly just has no power for a second or two. Help me.

I replaced the ICM ignition control module and it had no effect. The book shows the wrong color wires so when i tested it it failed. duh. But the coil seems to be fine when i run the tests on it.
