Morning sickness

Here is the run down, 1.5 years ago I bought my truck it ran great when I first bought it. About 2 months after that I started having sluggish acceleration in the mornings not bad but noticeable it would go away when the engine would warm up. In December I had 2 injectors go out and thought this would help my sluggish problems but it actually made them more noticeable due the power increase. Everyone told me that it was written in the program to not have power until the truck warms up. 2 weeks ago the truck would not move in the morning I replaced the ICP and the problem got better. Now I got in my truck today I had no power in the morning 85 outside temp. I could not get the ICP over 1700 WOT once the truck reached 185 power came back. Could this be a symptom of a bad IPR? I have a infinity can I diag the IPR with this? No codes. Thanks for your help

That dc looks low compared to what mine runs on the AREOMETER.At 2500-3000 I can see numbers in the forties.I do have a Terminator pump with a right new IPR as well.
Let's see what others say before you go out and buy one though.

Could be ipr... but i would point to weak hpop, or a couple more injectors on their way out.

Had the same symptoms on Motorbug. Pulled vc's and fired up cold... sure enough 5&7 were no spitters. Swapped them with fresher ones TXtinct was kind enough to let me borrow... and things got much better... but the one that got stuck in #5 hole is bad... so i have a little shake...
Then... 8 decides to start crapping out and 4 isnt far behind...

I so need new injectors.(ok so not really need... but want... since she still pulls a 33ft gooseneck at 70-75 without breaking 1k* on pyro..)

I don't think it is an injector. All 8 were changed at the same time to FF stage 1.
