Don't you think it could be a worn timing chain?

hello guys so my truck seems idle lower now about 2800-3200 roughly idles nicely drop into gear goes about 2200-2400 and when i give it gas and hit throttle good it sputters then backfires and dies and puffs out the intake so what would cause this...fuel pump maybe? idk replaced about anything could think of.. also noticed drivetrain seemed to move more than i think it should be but could be wrong idk why would die like that and even when go drive forward itll bog down and stall unless gas it any thoughts??? anyone please love this truck and just wanna get running nice and smooth..

If it's idling that high, you have a serious vacuum leak somewhere.

See if you can find a factory service manual for your truck. That should have a vacuum diagram in it, among other useful info.....
