Default Rough starts, dies, idling and loss of power

Hi all,
89' Riviera here. Past few months or so, the car has had some bad starts, dies, rough sputtering when warm, better when its cold. So, is it a crankshaft position sensor, fuel filter/pump, or a plug issue? I did the screen code thing, it did spit out a 41 which is the position sensor, but it wasnt clear as it said "current" then "history" so not sure what that means..any help from some of you that know way more about this would be greatly appreciated. The car was my grandads, WW2 paratrooper. Im keeping it running and trying to improve it inside and out.

Thanks,
Robert
