#15323, "damn car problems.."


          

Well i took my car to SATAN for the lower ball joint recall..well they did replace em.. but found out there were more things wrong w/ my car..
`Water Pump leaking (damn it! should've replaced it when i got my timing belt changed)
Cracked Crankshaft Pulley (my belt got torn to shreds- they said it was misaligned..time to get the AF/X pulley- but i could survive w/o power steering)
Brake Pads (easily replaceable)
Upper Radiator Hose is bad (easily replaceable)
Hi/D. Tensioner (what's this? - do i gotta replace that?)
CEL is on cuz of o2 Sensor -- but when i checked the codes it had nothing to do w/ the o2.. i got codes;
12 - TP Sensor Malfunction
21 - Injector #1 Control Circuit
55 - Idle Air Control Motor Circuit Malfunction

How do I go by fixing those last 3?

I hate havin problems on my car.. makes me want to juss get a new car.. but i love my car.. Any help would be great! thanks fellas.

The first code and the last code mean nothing. The 12 just tels you something happened and the 55 means that it is at the end of the codes. I am not sure about the 21 code though.
