What do these Engine Malfunction error codes mean?

My '98 has been sitting for a couple of years and after making some repairs and driving it around for a couple of days, the Engine Malfunction light lit up. I copied the three number sets down several times to verify that I was not making any mistakes, then turned the key back a repeated the whole procedure, but two of them do not seem to correspond to anything, according to this page: http://vbxmaxima.8m.com/ecudecoder.html.

28 41 49

I plugged the intake sensor back in and I reset the light, so at least the 41 error code should be taken care of when I turn it on tomorrow. What do the 28 and 49 mean?

After fixing the previous problems and putting a couple hundred miles on the odometer, the light turned on again! I can't find what these mean, even using the search engine you provided.

Try entering 0705 and 0309 into the seach engine.
Evap codes, both of them.

75 = 0705 = P0440
Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Control System (Small Leak) (Negative Pressure)
Note: If both P0440 and P1448 are displayed, perform TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC P1448 first.

39 = 0309 = P1448
Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Vent Control Valve (Open)

Go here and download the EC section of the service manual.

http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/Maxima/1998/EC.pdf

Code 0705 (P0440) is on page 274 and code 0309 (P1448) is on page 396.
