My jeep started it about 6months ago. I would be going down the and the engine would just die no warning. i would pull over put it in park and it allways started rite back. and it wouldnt do it very often. but in the last few weeks its gotten a lot worse. It would stop and take longer to start when it did start it would only run for a few minutes then die again. But now it wont start at all.

We really don't just guess at things as a rule and the normal procedure would be to test for spark, fuel pressure and injector pulse while it's dead but that is going to be difficult. The Crankshaft Position Sensor is pretty notorious for acting like that.
