Couple of little issues;NEED ADVICE

Hey guys. I was tinkering around with the bird today,(305 tbi) and I took the Air cleaner off while it was running to see how the tbi was doing. I noticed the fuel was spraying kinda funny. It would spray strong and then kinda sputter, both sides at the same time. The idle was also fluctuating some. Well I got a ses light the other day and decided to pull the codes, what I got was a 15, and a 23. 15;Low temp indicated at coolant sensor, 23. Low temp at at manifold air temp sensor or tps error. Here is the question. Would either of these cause the way the tbi was acting? And how do I test to determine what needs replaced or worked on? Thanks alot guys, you have already saved my butt once with this car!
