Research those trouble codes online to see what the possible causes for them are.Some may be unrelated, like O2 sensor codes for example, and those indicating failed sensors may be triggered by loose or dirty electrical connections which is a huge problem on older cars. In other words, do your homework first, then start spending money on parts. With all that said, a plugged catalytic converter came to mind, so check that out, or have a muffler shop check it for you.
