Default P1516 error...any help?

i am getting P1516, P1517, and P1518.
feels like she is runnin a bit sluggish.
It did seem like it was runnin hot a few days ago, and wanted to stall. I saw some coolant fizzin out of the surge tank so I kinda got that sealed up, but still have these error codes.
btw , temp now seems to be about 197, is that close to what it should be?

P1516 & P1517 But you also have P1518 Must be addressed First!
Circuit Description
The commanded throttle position, based on accelerator pedal position and possibly other limiting factors, is compared to the Actual throttle position. The 2 values should be within a calibrated range of each other. Both the PCM and the Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) module redundantly monitor the Commanded and Actual throttle position. This DTC sets if the TAC module detects the problem.

Conditions for Running the DTC


DTC P1518 is not set.
The ignition switch is in the crank or run position.
The ignition voltage is greater than 5.23 volts.
Not in battery saver mode.

If you get me your E-address I can sent you more info!

Your profile is not filled out!
So I used my car, it should be the same as long as you have a C5 5.7L?
If you want post your specs and I will send that info!
