P0108 is a MAP sensor issue. High input. Did you mess with the MAP sensor located above the PCV valve on the right side of the UIM plenum or PCV? Remove and re-seat the electrical connector to the MAP sensor to start. Also, make sure the MAP sensor is seated properly in the forked plastic retainer and accordian seal is good.
P0121 is a throttle position sensor (TPS) issue. Remove and re-seat the electrical connector to start. This DTC indicates the TPS is either stuck or the output is skewed.

Oops! :rofl:
Did you lean on that while getting the back plugs?

lol, must have. a new one fixed the problem. the back plugs are actually ALOT easier then i thought they would be. hardest part of the entire job was pulling the back wires off
funny thing is the sensor was in that exact condition a few months ago when i changed the PCV valve, and it just now set a code..... must have bumped it just right

The clip that holds the MAP in probably held it together enough to keep the code from tripping. Eventually, it started leaking enough to cause the light to come on. Glad to hear you got it fixed.
