Alright so a few weeks ago on my way home from work, I noticed my truck running really sluggish from red lights unless I held it wide open. It’s a 95 k1500,5.7 4l60e with 137,000 Miles. In park or neutral it didn’t have any problem at idle but reverse or drive it would idle close to 500rpm and if you put any strain, such as turning the wheel, it would drop lower and often stall completely. So far I have replaced the fuel filter and swapped the IAC with one I had sitting around, and ran some BG 44k through he fuel. And still no change. From idle to almost 3500 rpm the truck feels like it has no power at all until you get out of second gear then it seems fine. While all of this is going on, I noticed the problem is worse with the AC compressor or headlights on. Any extra electronic draws power below the 14 volts and the turn signal drops and raises with each flash. It’s no major draw but with the headlights on, turn signal going and the AC compressor on it nearly drops to 12 volts. To address this problem I replaced one of the ground straps that I noticed was broken, and still nothing. Can somebody give me some more ideas on where to start to fix both of these issues. They both came at the same time so I’m guessing they’re correlated. Thanks yall
