Default Changed spark plugs, oil pressure sensor maxes out and engine stalls

Three days ago I changed out my OEM spark plugs with E3 diamond fire ones (E3.58). It says they were pre-gapped and the right ones for my '01 Cherokee Limited. It's a 4.0L in-line six. Since I changed them out I have driven 40 miles to work and went to make a turn into my parking space and my jeep stalled on me. My headlights and radio stayed on but the engine shut off. I started it back up and the oil pressure sensor shot up to a max reading. I turned it off and started it back up and the sensor went to a normal reading. The next day on the way to work, everything was normal. On the way home, I stopped at a red light and my jeep stalled out. I don't know what is causing this.
