IAC valve may need to be cleaned but it would not idle corectly if so . look for holes in tube going to throttle body . also have you replaced wires and spark plugs ?
if your alternator is garbage then turning your headlights on and running your car will drain that ****** till its dead. but before you do that. just make sure there isnt build up on the terminals of your battery that may be causing a very poor connection. as for the throttle body sensor. it may or may not be related. i doubt the two problems are.
It's possible it's your fuel pump getting ready to fail. There was a recall a number of years back on the fuel pump, which your local Ford dealer should replace for free.
