Rough Idle

My truck has developed a rough idle, seems to jump rpm from around 750 to 650 but seems like it may be the lift pump but i have no experience. And before you says its the programmer it happened before i even installed it.

here is a lil video.

Can you tell us more about the truck, like maybe what engine you have, what mods, what transmission?

ok what is ipr% and icp at 185* and idle. possibly a high pressure oil leak. keep in mind a slight fluctionation in rpm is normal however yours does seem a little higher then that.
also what is icpv koeo?
