Stalling problem
When I take off my jeep will stall when I have about about a quarter tank of gas and something will clunk when it stalls which I'm thinking it's my starter but I checked my fuel pressure and that's good could it be an injector

if it stalls one of two things is happening 1) no spark 2) no fuel. I just went through something like this and before you go throughing a whole bunch of parts at it hook it up to a scanner it will save a hole lopt of head ackess. what year is your jeep? just because some years have a ballast resistor in the fuel pump positive feed and if this goes bad the fuel pump will cut out. this would be located (if you have one) on the drivers side fender right next to the vacuum for the brakes. it is a lite tan and has wire hooked to both ends hope this helps.

My jeep is a 99 I just changed wires plugs rotor cap and ignition coil it has 86000 on it I think it might be time for a new fuel filter or injector cleaning

Does it stall when (a)braking (b)Under Power? (c)Only with 1/4 of a Tank (d) when cold/hot (engine temp). Does it fire right back up? You can not provide too many details when trying to get help on the forum.

Sounds like you have a fuel delivery problem, even though your pressure checked out, sounds like it cant keep up with demand below a 1/4 tank for some reason . The fuel filter is part of the fuel pump "module" in the tank. Im gonna say you need to drop the tank and have a look and see what the filter and strainer looks like
