Failed emissions test

My 1997 Volvo 850 GLT with B5254T (turbo) engine has 100,000 miles on
it. Today it failed an Illinois emissions test (hydrocarbon reading
was .96 grams per mile versus standard of .60 GPM). My check engine
light had been on, so I took it to my local AutoZone store for a free
OBD scan and reset. Here are the Diagnostic Trouble Codes and
Definitions I received:

P0102: MAF or VAF Circuit Low Input
P0116: Engine Coolant Temp CKT Range/Perf
P0172: System Too Rich (Bank 1)
P0300: Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected
P0301: Cylinder 1 Misfire Detected
P0302: Cylinder 2 Misfire Detected
P0303: Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected
P0304: Cylinder 4 Misfire Detected
P0305: Cylinder 5 Misfire Detected
P0455: EVAP Emission Control System Leak (Large)

Any suggestions out there on what I can do to pass the emissions test
without taking the car to a repair technician?
