What would cause my 1990 chevy cheyenne to bog down while accelerating ?

The idle air control valve only controls idle speed.
The most common causes are restricted exhaust or air intake, or low fuel pressure.
Is the check engine light on ?

Why does my 1999 90 horsepower johnson idle but bogs down when accelerating

if this is a 2 stroke and went under water the problem may be damaged reed valves on the inlet side of the crankcase. Working all right when the air flow is low but do not seal of properly at rpms.. Suggest that you have an accredited outboard specialist look at it.

I have a 97 grand am gt with 3.1 idles fine but normal acceleration and cruise is nearly impossible. Bogs down at all speeds. Hard acceleration is fine goes good.

I had the same problem with my 89 grand am it was caused by a faulty crank position sensor. Initially it would cut out when accelerating and eventually wouldn't start at all, replaced the sensor runs great again.

Would an idle control valve cause a car not to accelerate?

no, idle air control valve is literally to control your idle speed.
what happen when you press on gas? car shakes, RPM goes up, or engine just bogs down?

89 jeep cherokee 4.0 it bogs down and will accelerate in drive

Make sure that the timing is correct and that the spark from the coil is healthy. Problem can also be with the overdrive in the converter. If it's stuck on it can do that too.
