Default need help with engine light

i had the code checked yesterday and came back with P0510 - closed throttle position switch malfunction. i replace this sensor with a new one. it fixed my low and rough idle and power loss but the light came back on after driving a couple miles. had the code pulled again but this time it came back with P0300 - random misfire, P0301 - misfire cylinder 1, and P0306 - misfire cylinder 6. i then replaced the all the spark plugs, wires, distributor cap, rotor, and ignition coil, reset and still have the same 3 codes. i also did a seafoam 2 weeks ago. i have no clue what else to do.
