2001 xj stalling issue
Alright I’m at a loss on what could possibly be the issue here. But I have a 2001 Cherokee and it has a slight miss but other than that runs fine until you exceed 3k rpm. I can put my foot down and it will run above 3k rpm but the moment I let off the throttle it will completely shut off. No hesitations or bucking just turns off like I flipped the key off. I’ve replaced the cam and crank sensors. It’s got new plugs. I will be picking up a fuel pressure tester tonight to see what I’m getting from that. If I don’t exceed 3k rpm it will run just fine. Also after it stalls it will turn right back on and continue driving until I do it again

Update
i checked the fuel pressure and it was good, drove it around after unplugging the cam sensor and it runs fine. Change the sensor with another one and it stalls again above 3k rpm. I’m thinking there’s an issue somewhere along the wiring of the cam sensor.

Did you check the pressure yourself? and/or did you use a pressure gauge and see what you're getting at different rpm/driving ranges?

Codes
I checked pressure with gauge at idle and under load and it was good, I’m getting these codes after resetting engine light. The check engine light only came on after hard acceleration and it shut right off
