Default Died & won't run

After starting for the first time in the morning Thursday morning it ran about 3-5 minutes and died. I restarted it and ran about two miles when it died for good. I scanned the codes and got 340, 335, 470 &1135. I have replaced the Cam position sensor, the Crank Position sensor and reset the PCM by removing power from the battery. It will start every now and then and run fine for 15 seconds the sputter as if it were out of time and die. Coils check good 10-11k ohms. There is a spark but more of a yellow than bright blue,, ANY HELP would be appreciated!!!

Default RE: Died & won't run

I reset the PCM again allowing 15 minutes w/no power. I can now start it but it runs as if something is removing the ignition system. I hold it at 2000 rpm and it is enough to overcome the time the ignition drops, but once in a while it just dies. I pump the accelerator in hopes the TPS sending a different signal wil trigger it again. Sometimes it does and sometimes it don't.
