Exclamation jeep cherokee runnin rough and stalling

I decided to put sea foam through the throttle body. Everything was fine.
Then I decided to wash the engine bay, and the engine started fine. I turned it off and it began to start sucking air like a madman and then the entire engine started to shake like it was a big block and then it died.

So afterhand it wouldn't start, so I replaced basically everything I could think of.

-Coil
-distributor
-spark plugs
-Crank position sensor
-TPS
-IAC
-Oil sensor
- disconnected the 02 sensor upstream, disconnected everything on the throttle body and NO DIFFERENCE.
I cant find any vacuum leaks.

-Could my manifold be cracked? I saw one crack near where it's bolted on the pipes.
-ECU is shot?
-Camshaft sensor?
MAP sensor? Its the only thing that hasn't been replaced on the throttle body

It starts now but it runs rough as hell, the check engine light is on as well. I get a strong smell of gas coming from the exhaust, and I took a video of the problem! Please help!

Sorry for the upside down video, and volume warning for headphone users

EDIT: Fixed! It was a fault JET CHIP! Which is an engine mod that hooks right into the ECU!
