working from memory the p0340 is related to ckp or cmp or correlation of ckp cmp it is the most likely cause of the problem verify that the timing belt is aligned correctly check intake vacuum , if it is not 20" at hot idle , it is likely cam timing is incorrect also i do not know if the automatic metros have lock up torque converters ... but if yours does disconnect it and see if the stalling diminishes or goes away |

You've got a bad ground. No way you have six different sensors malfunctioning. Main sensor and computer ground is on the cam position sensor housing, driver's side top of the engine, the point closest to the battery. |

I know at least the o2 and emmssions are true because they have been there forever and won't go away, does anyone know any tricks to keep the engine light off because of those 2? |

For the p0420 you need to replace the cat or downstream o2 sensor. |
