The obd2 codes would have been better. I'd check voltage and ground circuits at the computer, for a start. I use oem spark plugs.

code 12 means battery voltage has been lost at some point.
Code 14 is for the map sensor.
code 23 is intake air sensor.
code 43 is cylinder misfire.
code 24 is throttle position sensor.
code 21 is 02 sensor issue.
code 55 should be end of message.
