97 E420 codes: P0450 & P0115 P
I've had these codes for years, P0450 evaporative system pressure sensor and P0115 P- engine coolant temperature circuit malfunction.
I've reset the lights only for them to come back on moments later. Car runs fine and has been running with these codes for many years, but I want to get these issues resolved. Has anyone had experience with these codes?

Out Of Control!!
I would not go at this problem with any haste as you may find yourself tripping over your shoe laces----my suggestion would be to go to EPC group 47 fuel system and find the sensor.
P0115 is somewhat less argues. The fault typically means that you have or in your case have had a faulty coolant temp sensor---once again use EPC and go to the engine\coolant group and find the sensor!!

Did you try to flip fuel cap gasket?
Even the engine will run fine with faulty temperature sensor, the computer is using default data, not the live data.
Meaning lower performance and more burned fuel.
Get that thing fixed.
