Default 1986 honda accord need some help plz

i have a 1986 accord LXi with 92k miles on it. after i have drivin it around and i try to start it back up, the engine rotates but wont fire. the first thing i checked is the main relay and had it replaced. i cleaned the battery terminals and the problem was still there. then i replaced the ignition control module, the spark plugs, the rotor, the distributer cap and the spark plug wires. the friggin problem is still there. the engine does get spark. i think it might have something to do with the PGM-FI because the light randomly turns on when im driving.
another thing that bugs me is the idle speed jumps up and down and usually rests at 2000rpm. im really tired of having to hang out at the grocery store for 4 hours, (getting gas is a whole other story!) and with summer approaching i dont think ill be able to make any 2-way trips. so please, any tips would be appreciated.
ps. i checked the ECU and its giving me six blinks (engine coolant temp.)

replace the coolant temp sensor if that sensor is bad when it's warm the computer will think the engine is cold and flood the engine making it hard to start
