The cam or crank sensor will not make them miss in my experience. A weak sensor may quit once in a while especially when it warms up, but usually not cause a miss.

Remember that this is a lost spark type of system. The plug fires every time the piston comes up, on compression AND exhaust. Number 1 and number 4 fire together and 2 and 3 fire together. So there is no control for each individual cylinder. Knowing this makes it much easier to track down a miss that is unique to 1 cylinder.
