Default Camshaft sensor position

2001 Cherokee. Been getting misfire forever. Tried everything on here suggested by you guys. Only sensor I haven't replaced is the IAC but not pulling any codes except for 300 301 306.
Is the positioning of my camshaft sensor correct? Thinking that may be what's throwing off my firing? 14mpg also with all new tune up parts and stock everything. ....
Just a thought

Have you indexed your camshaft position sensor using the "toothpick" technique? I'd certainly give that a go. Search and you should be easily able to find threads with the procedure on how to do this.

I have not. I've read about that procedure but I've read you need a DRB scanner from the dealer to do it correctly. ..
