po121 is throttle position sensor is out of range.po442 is emissions system leak detected small leak.po455 is same as po442 but large leak.po496 is high purge flow . Check all the vacuum lines plastic also cause one of them is broken.
Could be minor problem with vacuum lines leaking, bad gas cap, bad purge valve, etc. Worth fixing is a call based on everall condition of car, but this could be very minor.

Hello and welcome. these codes are for a evap system leak, could be a gas cap, vent valve, purge valve, tank seal leaking, or any one of the fuel fuel vapor leaking. the only way to know for sure what part needs replaced is to have the system smoke tested with a evap test station.
po442 is evap emission control system leak (small) 1 of the lines for emissions is leaking. po455 is-- emission control system leak (large). turn off light with code scanner after it is fixed.
The problem is most likely to be with your vacuum line they put cheap rubber hose for this purpose. You should find a diagram at the front of the vehicle trace the hoses by this diagram. You most likely will find a bad piece of hose.
