i had a similar problem.
crank positioning sensor
idle air sensor
cam positioning sensor
distributor.
i changed just about every sensor and even my fuelpump before i took 4 minutes to change the distributor and fixed everything.

isnt the cam positioning sensor inside of that assembly?
try crankshaft positioning sensor. cheap and takes 15 minutes
also try the fuel filter.

could be... i had spare sensors so i changed em all lol i dunno how much they cost.
theres the idle air controller. it could be very dirty and its housing could be as well... i was told to clean it since i have a lot of oil blow-by. ended up helping even though that wasnt my cause. could be yours though.
