have you tried checking your spark plug wire connections on the dizzy? maybe you have the tps sensor set wrong.. they can be adjusted.

maybe you have a bad cap and rotor?? or the coil is bad now? have you had those codes before the problem occurred? and did the car just out of no where start that?
