Default antifreeze agian dam it and low rpm idle

i came back from a late night went to town in the morning got the usual coffee and paper. Well i was driving by my sister's in 2nd rpm was 1000 then it cut in and out 2x befor i could get the clutch in it died. wouldn't start hour later my buddy come's to pick me up. I took a plug wire off to see if it was getting spark well it fired up. Shut it off hooked the wire back. Noticed at the same time it was leaking antifreeze and hitting the top of the rubber intake hose coming out of the throttle body. Everone i'm sure now what those stock rubber heater's hose's look like the with those funky clamp's i'm not sure cause when i started it back up i didn't see know antifreeze spewing out but it was wet around the clamp. any advice. It's idling at like 600 maybe 700. before you could start it it idle 1100 then dropped 900 now it's like 900 to 700-600 i swear it dropped down to 200-300 and was still going. new iat new map/mat new tps sensors

i was thinking that, but from the best i can tell no. it doesn't cut out ican rev it to 5700 easy just really low idle i don't want it dieing when i push the clutch in. I once heard check your tps voltage but how do i do that ?
