You have multiple codes. Most likely caused by one thing. I quickly looked up this:

What causes the P2118 code?

These are the most common causes of the P2118 code:
  • Throttle actuator control motor failure
  • Failed pedal position sensor
  • Throttle position sensor faulty
  • Open or short in the actuator circuit
  • Poor electrical connection
I would be looking for a poor electrical connection, probably a ground connection. Check the grounding strap(s) between engine and body and anything else you can get your hands on.

It sounds like the engine is going into "limp mode", to protect you , your vehicle and others.
I believe allegretto gave you good advice and agree with the suggestions he offered.
