Since you just bought this car I’m going to assume the previous owner cleared these codes before handing the car over to you. I’m also going to assume the engine idle is not stable.

One of the first things I would Do is clean the throttle body and idle control valve and clean the MAF. While there check and make sure your vacuum lines are connected and see if any noticeable vacuum leaks.
The next thing I would check is see if your AOS should be replaced. Do a search on AOS problems.

I had 1124 and 1126 and ended up with a vacuum leak that I needed to have my indy hook a smoke generator to find.
