1988 2.8 running rough need opinion

About 2 weeks ago my car began to run and idle like crap. When sitting at idle its barely staying alive at 800-1000 rpms and the rpms are up and down. When i am cruising down the road and take a turn hard or try to take off fast it drops in rpms and almost stalls. Once or twice ive started the car and it just stalls. I am pretty sure it is not the gas, ive added water remover and have filled up at different gas stations since it started. Let me know what you think. - thanks
