Check your fuel pressure to make sure the pump is sufficiently providing fuel and look into "Heat soak" which the 00-01 XJ's apparently had an issue with. If all else fails (and assuming yours is an automatic transmission) you could replace the CPS with a new Mopar unit. The first 2 things are a lot cheaper to do, so I'd start there.
