Question misfiring need help

just rebuilt my motor to a 2.3 and had it running fine for a lil bit and now its misfiring and will not stay running. at first it ran fine then started to have cam and crank position sensor codes and would not start, then i got a new cam position sensor and it starts up now but only runs good for like 30 seconds then starts to misfire and die. anyone know what i should do? i really don't feel like taking it all back a apart to get to the crank position sensor and replace it and that not be the problem, not sure if that sensor being bad would cause a misfire anyways. maybe could it be my spark plug gap, but i don't see how it could run good for a while then then just start to randomly misfire and throw cam and crank sensor codes

Make sure your crank thrust is not excessive

Did you jump timing? If the computer sees a difference between your cam/crank sensor it will try and start but won't run.
