I would like to thank DougW for all his help. The Camshaft sensor change
went well, the wrangler started right up. Took it around the block it
coughed and stuttered then shut down. This time it did start right back up
though. I have no idea what could be the problem now. I don't think its fuel
related or the plugs, plug wires,cap, or rotor. What am I forgetting?
thanks Dean.

np.. I hoped that was the cause but guess not.

Have you checked the battery cables or jiggled them with
the engine running?

Any codes stored in the computer?

I'm running out of ideas without actually seeing it first hand.
The last resort is to have Jeep put it on the scanner and do a
diagnositcs. It's not cheap but they take the price off any
repair work they do.. yea, like that's a bargain. :/

What about the real CPS that causes 99% of shutdowns because it's plug
sits on the exhaust manifold and gets corroded or a dead wire mesh
ground from the engine head to the firewall?
