Default 93 del sol bouncing idle problem plz help

I have a 93 del sol with a b20vtec (si head with jdm block) car runs fine vtec kicks no check engine light but when i turn on the head lights or the blower or the radiator fan kicks i get a bouncing idle. I replaced the grounds on the battery and in the engine bay also changed the tps and the iacv but still problem persist the car had a wire tuck when i got it so idk if maybe a wire is damaged but the car runs fine and idles fine when no electric load is added. Any info will be greatly appreciate ive searched all over and no luck

Spray carb cleaner around areas while it is running and see if that changes the idle speed...

Last ignition system tune up?
Have you checked the mechanical and ignition timing?
