Jeep went dead a few days ago we have replaced the crankshaft position sensor, replaced distributor, cap, rotor, plugs, wires, we have checked fuel pressure at rail and it is 39 psi which is correct according to manual. We have tried spraying starting fluid into intake still nothing. Also compression is good. I am out of ideas I have tried everything I can come up with please help

The engine does crank ok tho correct? It sounds like it's not firing but to be sure hold a plug wire next to ground while cranking or use a spark tester. Let me know after these tests what the results are thank Curt

It had spark and fuel. We finally got it running again it was a combination of everything we had replaced and a weak coil. Was told the coil spark should jump 3/4 to 1 inch on these models, would only jump 1/4 inch replaced all ignition retimed good to go
