Need some tips for some multiple codes

I have a 2003 ranger that will barely run and throwing raw fuel out the tail pipe.

The codes I have are p1000, p0155, p1116, p1780, p1703, p1138, p1127

The codes I am most concerned with are p0155,p1127 and p1138

I am going to check for vacuum leaks and the pvc valve tonight, what else should I look at?

The variety of the multiple codes you posted leads me to believe you have an engine control issue (computer/ignition/fuel injection). If it's spitting out raw fuel than obviously the engine is getting too much fuel and/or not enough spark, and/or the spark timing and/or fuel injection sequencing is way off kilter.

Is there any specific event that caused the problem? Did you recently have any engine or electrical repairs done? How about something like moisture issues - for example, did you wash down the engine bay or the inside of the cab?

Keep in mind that the codes you posted which involve O2 sensors are more than likely indicating a condition of the problem (running too rich), not the actual cause.

No nothing unusual, it just started the other day when I was leaving for work. I could barely get it back home.

Injectors over injecting, like they're addicted to it or something.

A fuel pressure test would be a good place to start. And make sure that all the spark plugs are firing.
