I've had them act up where idle goes through the roof, where idle gets dropped back to less than 500rpm where it BARELY still runs, and I've had them be tempermental like mine currently is. Great 75% of the time, but now and again on a whim, I'll get the 500rpm idle.
I cleaned it about 2 years ago, and its probably due again.
I think the codes you're seeing are more of a result, than a cause. I think your idle is getting choked out, causing a misfire sputter, lean-out, weird MAP reading all while its choking and gasping to keep running.
When idle is messed up, start IAC and go from there. Its quick, and costs $2.50 for can of brake cleaner to see where it gets you.
