Default help on position sensors

I got a 2000 eclipse with a 3.0L eng. I got 2 bad readings. The camshaft position sensor and the crankshaft position sensor.
First question does the 3.0L even have a camshaft position sensor i looked for the part online it doesn't show.
The car has 150k miles i'm about to go ahead and change the timing belt and the crankshaft position sensor.
It just started idling awful and shutting off on stop lights and signs , if i put it in nuetral and keep it at about 1k rpm it won't shut off and it runs fine when i'm on the road. Any tips or ideas about whats going on. The plugs, wires, ignition coil and so fourth have all been already changed.

that engine gets it cam reading from the distributor, how long ago did you change the wires?

before or after your problem started?

when you change the timing belt make sure the tensioner is not leaking or collapsed

a loose belt will throw your sensor readings off
