Vacuum leak. Check the "big 3".

You need to have the car running (cold start) then spray starting fluid at each connection location shown in the pic above as well as around the intake manifold. If you get a change in r.p.m. That's where a problem lies. Visual inspection oftentimes can't detect a smaller leak or one like around the brake booster hose where it enters the manifold.

With those codes and misfires on every cylinder it is almost always a vacuum leak.

Next step if that fails, is just input the codes in the SEARCH function of this forum and start reading. Nearly everything that can and has gone wrong has been discussed here. Sometimes ad nauseam.

I sorta lightly lean towards a brake booster leak somewhere with "spongy brakes" but I hedge that with they could be two totally unrelated problems.

Yeah, starting fluid (a.k.a. Ether).
