About a week ago I had a t-fitting that recirculates coolant from the intake back into the heater core line fail, dumping coolant everywhere. To make a long story short it now misses under load in the 1000-1500 range, then goes away anywhere above that. It also only misses once the throttle is opened to a certain point. Before i go with plugs and coils I want to know if this could have dirtied up anything through the intake? I have a hunch that it sucked in some coolant and fouled a plug or 8. Any ideas would be helpful.

The first thing you need to do is pull the COPs and make sure the plugs wells are dry--get the coolant out of the plug wells (stuff paper towels down in there, use a shop-vac with a thin tube taped on, compressed air, or whatever).

Chances are you'll find one (maybe #8) with coolant in the well...
