Default 90 corvette ignition issues

I have a 90 corvette 6sp and it's running real bad. I'm no mechanic so I have no clue what it could be.

The car runs a lot better it seems without the AC or radio on, so im thinking maybe its an electrical issue?

Sometimes the car runs decent and other times it spits and sputters and chokes during acceleration. It's really confusing and quite embarassing at times because during acceleration the car jerks like you cant drive with a clutch hah.

If you have any suggestions or questions lmk

Check fuel pressure. It's just like checkin' air in the tire. You can get a guage loaner at the Advance Zone stores. They'll show you how.
