Help Codes

I have codes 124, 181, 184 and 185. I was thinking clean MAF, replace IAC and TPS. Am I on the right track? The car idles high at 1200 most of the time. I runs good and only pings when its over 95F outside. I get an intermittent CEL and then it goes back off. I replaced the plugs with the stock recomendation and that caused a lot of the pinging to go away. What do you think? Is there something else I should be checking?
 
DTC 124, 181, 184 and 185

I use http://www.actron.com/code_lookup.php to get fairly reliable descriptions for the codes.
185 Mass Air Flow Lower Than Expected
184 Mass Air Flow Higher Than Expected
181 Rich Limit Partial Throttle, Lean Bank #1
124 Throttle Position Sensor Voltage High
Diagnostic Trouble Codes, DTC might get some other in that can help.
Of course, you have done a search on each of these DTC's and didn't find anything, right?

try cleaning the maf (mass air flow), /w something like crc mass air flow sensor cleaner - or something on the order of electro wash (tuner cleaner - radio shack)

and maybe reset the computer

cheers
