97 Saturn SL2 codes and Running problems

My wifes 97 Sl2 is throwing up these codes. p0341 camshaft position sensor,p0336 crankshaft position sensor, p0733 Gear 3 ratio incorrect,p0732 gear 2 ratio incorrect, p0783 3 to 4 shift malfunction.
Currently the car will start when cold. It's idling at 1200 rpm in neutral/park and when put in gear it jumps between 2000 and 4000rpm.
After a few minutes of running rpm's jump irraticly up and down and then the darn thing dies and won't refire until it's cold again.
I had the motor completely rebuilt less than a year ago by a professional
company due to timing chain slap and high mileage.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

don't worry about the P0341 until you fix the P0336. the P0336 and stalling/no start when warm is most likely a bad crankshaft position sensor, they tend to first fail when hot.

the P07XX codes could be a number of things, if you can get the engine up and running at normal temp, check the transmission fuild level and color(red is good, brown or black is bad - new transmission) did they do anything with the transmission during the rebuild?

I will change the Crankshaft position sensor tonight and let you know
how things turn out.
The transmission has never been touched.

THanks for the help!!

I finally got enough time to change the crankshaft position sensor.
Seems to be running good, a little hesition occasionaly but other than that it's back to normal.

Thanks for all your help!!!
