Default PLEASE HELP!!!! IM STUMPED

car is a 95 accord ex f22b1
ok, so a couple of days ago i replaced intake gaskets and cleaned egr ports because i had a high idle and that fixed the problem. the next day when i started the car and went to let out of the clutch it stumbled and had to press the clutch back in to keep it from dying. now when i start the car it will idle fine for a minute but one it starts to get warm the car will get a random miss and end up dying. no codes are showing up and ive replaced the following.
egr valve, thermstat, water temp sensor, cap, distributer, plugs, and wires, tried and cleaned two iacv's, tried and cleaned two 02 sensors, replaced ecu with known good one, tested all sensor like tps, maf and all throw codes if i unplug them. checked all fuses and vacuum lines, checked grounds, im at a complete loss as to what this is!! i did notice im leaking coolant out of most gaskets now too, and the top rad hose feels like its going to explodelike its building pressure from maybe a blown headgasket? someone please help me!!!!
thanks in advance

Sounds like the the intake manifold gasket may be leaking coolant into the number four cylinder. Did you remove all the old intake manifold gasket using a razor before installing the new gasket ?

everything was cleaned and scraped well, ive worked on car since i was old enough to turn a wrench. i fixed the weird miss and dying issue ( was a loose ground). it still leaks coolant from the from water neck on the motor, t-stat housing, and water pump gasket. it starts and runs fine for about 10 minutes now and then dies out so im thinking it needs a HG now.

The head gasket will almost always only fail if it overheats.
