Heatsoak. Also throwing a bunch of codes like that I would check your alternator and make sure it is pumping out I believe 13-14 volts to the battery. Also stalling when hot could be a lean issue which in turn is linked to the IAC, MAF, and EGR.

Cool, now check all your electrical connections for the sensors, something could be loose that is causing all the codes to pop up; also reconnect the IAC; not a good idea to have it disconnected considering it will tell the computer to richen or lean the fuel mixture based on air temp.
