Based on those codes, you have a 2nd gen?

Swap the metering oil pump.

Chances are the ECU and OMP need to be replaced and purchasing used parts will save you an arm and a leg.

+1. New MOP/OMP and possibly new ECU time.

http://www.johnr.com/cpucodes.html

26 - MOP (Step Motor)
27 - MOP (General) - Basic Fuel Injection and fixed timing
33 - Solenoid, Port Air Valve

The port air solenoid on your ACV may also be disconnected or broken. But that's not a critical engine part.

The MOP is located on the lower left front of the engine. At least with the FDs, although new prices are crazy expensive, used versions are readily available from reputable people at a fraction.
