Idle from hell

This problem just happened literally overnight, went to bed it was fine got up started the car and holy crap, my idle jumped to 2600rpm then fell to 1100 then up and down over and over. got it to slow down some but but the lowest i could get it to was 1100. Now on to p of that its misfiring on one plug, when it wasnt earlier that day, will replace plugs wires cap rotor see what happens. I have never had to deal with a TPS, is it possible for it to cause this type of problem when it fails or am i looking at the wrong area for this type of issue?
