Hello,

These codes are both fuel related, both rich and lean code.
It could be caused by faulty oxygen sensor, bad MAP sensor, issue with fuel pressure regulator, EVAP purge solenoid operation, engine coolant temperature issue. It can also be due to an issue with the PCM.

I have attached the trouble shooting steps for these codes below. Follow the guide and it can help you determine what is the issue.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
