'86 745 turbo misses under load 700

I have just gone through a whole bunch of stuff starting with an oil leak caused by mechanic installing new distrubutor and not putting O rings on. I bought new o rings. I had to pry on the rotor to get it loose and in the process tweaked the hall sensor the part that goes round and round. I pried up on the part that was bent so that it had enough clearance all around to rotate., reinstalled distributor and played with the timeing and car fired right up.
On the test drive it ran great then started to miss like poor advance on the timeing or intermitten fuel supply. I cleaned all the grounds installed new fuel filter, tested Plug wires found one with no resistance replaced all the wires and plugs. Each step seems to improve but it still misses under load. I can get up to speed gradually but when I put my foot in it, it skips, hesitates, stutters, like maybe not hitting on all four.
I am about to order a new distrubtor because this all started with that R&R, fuel pump relay is also warm to the touch. HELP HELP HELP
Thanks
Ron
