This car has the 4.0 v-8 engine. Engine starts and runs for a second or two and then stalls. Will restart over and over but will not stay running. I am thinking bad crank sensor(s) but don't have a OBD scan tool to verify. Any experience with this is appreciated.

first, check the fuel pressure.

crank sensor wont do it as it is either good or bad.
