Welcome to AF.
The codes were rich and lean exhaust.
Code do not say replace sensors but to check things out.
Check fuel pressure for to high or to low and for a fast leak down,
I would drive it a day or two and see if any codes come back.
You may need to get it on a engine capable scanner and read out all sensors and fuel trims.
How many miles and what year and engine code?
How is the basic tune up?
Good AC delco plugs and other stuff?
