jeep randomly dies but starts right back up HELP

[94xjzac]

if im in neutral it doesnt die but when i pull onto the road i get about 200 feet andit just shuts off but starts back up after 2 seconds, could it be the ignition moduel? or the sensor on the bell housing? im not sure, i need to get back on the trails heellpp!

Most likely guess without diagnostics is "the sensor on the bell housing". Crank position sensor (CKP). Although your description is not typical. If you start it up and run it, will it keep running for a long time including getting up to normal operating temperature. If it does, it's less likely to be CKP. What about the normal tune up stuff like spark plugs? Could also be ignition coil. Ignition module (ECM/PCM) does not fail very often.

check the iac motor operation and clean the throttle body

mine was doing the same thing I replaced the cps (thing in the bell housing) and it still did it not sure if your model has a distributor, if it does check the cam senor inside of it. That was my problem. hope this helps.
