Default 04 WJ wont Stay running.

Hey guys i am working on my 04 WJ,
I just put gas in my jeep and it wouldnt start anymore, i got it towed home from the gas station.
It wont stay on without me pushing on the gas pedal, it sounds really bad and it is shaking like a muscle car haha.I replaced the Fuel Filter but still not running. any ideas what that could be ?

Did it first do this after getting the gas, but ran fine before? If so, I'd say you have water in the gas.

it ran fine before that. it looks like it is getting to much gas it is spraying it out the muffler and it has a lot of pressure.

Check it to see if it might have set/stored any trouble codes. >http://www.wjjeeps.com/faultcodes.htm#ERASE

The link I posted tells how to do it yourself using the ignition key and the digital odometer to display the codes.
Though it may not be as precise as the machine, I've used the "key method" to retrieve codes on Chrysler vehicles since the mid 80's, starting with my turbo Omni's and their flashing check engine light to display the codes.

Plus, any auto parts store will check for stored codes for free. They can then erase/reset them.
