CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR LOCATION FOR 4.0L ENGINE IS ON TRANSMISSION BELLHOUSING AT THE LEFT REAR OF THE ENGINE. FOR 5.2L ENGINE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR LOCATED ENGINE BLOCK BEHIND THE RIGHT CYLINDER HEAD.

I just had those similar symptoms with my 97 grand cherokee a week ago and my crankshaft position sensor had to be replaced...hope this helps.

The camshaft position sensor is located inside the distributor. It is a hall effect swich, simply remove the distributor cap and the rotor and you can lift it out, unplug and replace.
Have fun but beware a bad crankshaft position sensor can cause a false cam sensor code to be set sometimes.
Good luck.

1st I need to know what engine you have, 4.0L or 5.2L V8.

Most likely cause is the crankshaft sensor.

have u replaced the crankshaft position sensor? do u have any computer trouble codes? Kragen or Autozone will run the test for free.
