PLZZZZ sign up for an English course at your local community college.
Replace the ignition module.

Sounds like you replaced fuel pump relay, overload relay and I am not sure
the third relay...

You also replaced distributor cap, rotor, and spark plugs. Fuel filter was
also replaced...

I would say your problem is the crank position sensor.

Next time don't listen to the car seller, they always say "Great
Car"'s Bullshit.  You need to learn to stay away from trouble.  I
won't buy anything older then 15 years even for Low mileage.
