In need of some help with my engine

ok i have a 1994 pickup with the 3.0 3zve engine and a 5 speed trans, today i had to take my girlfriend to work due to her car having a flat tire. I picked her up after she got out of work and when i started my truck i noticed that the truck was idling really low and felt like it wanted to die on me but i got it going and it shortly went away. About an hour later we decided that we'd go fishing and when i went to start my truck it wouldn't start. . . . . .WTF

ok heres what happens:
1) When i try to start the truck it will make one loud click and start to turn the motor over but it's like it gets stuck (battery is good and had clean connections)
2) My friend and i then tried to roll start it the tires wouldn't turn
3) We then tried to turn the motor over manually and after moving it a little we got back in and tried to start the truck, it turned over for a second but then STOPED dead
4) after this we couldn't even turn the motor over manually
5) we then took the the intake tube heading to the filter off and discovered that there was liquid that smelled like anti-freeze and oil in there, and when the throttle was opened this liquid would come out of the throttle body

Can anyone help me Please? What is wrong with my truck?
