4,0 stalls on the highway
Hey guys. I will driving in the highway about 1700 to 2500 rpms i come off the gas and she stalls out. When I try to restart, it cranks for a lot longer than it does when first started. It happened once in a while, now once a trip. Someone mentioned the crank positioning sensor, could that be the issue?
Any advice would help. Thanks guys

Yep.
Just ran into the same issue with my daughters 00 XJ.
Pulled the crank sensor and it was covered with oil/dirt.
Installed a new sensor and no more random stalling.
I suggest getting a new sensor from your favorite parts house. Junk yard sensors are fine for trail repairs.
