Your distributor has nothing to do with the cooling system in a car. But if your distributor is bad and moving your timing around depending on which way it turns then it will effect idle. Lets say if the distributor retards itself then timing will be off and the car will want to shut off. If timing is advance then the car will idle higher. Both of these arent good for your. Fix your distributor nd worry about AC later.

Were's the jumper plug??? and I didn't change the timing belt at all. It was from my other motor...running car and put in another integra shell and it gave me all kind of problem...

At this point, I'm going to strongly recommend not working on your vehicle until you have at the very least a service manual for it. This isn't a chop shot, I'd just rather save you from possible damage.

Learning the hard way is usually effective, though is seldom cheap when speaking about automobiles.
