96 zj 4.0 starts but wont stay running
Hello all, im hoping someone can help and give me some answers. I have a 96 ZJ 4.0 that iv done a tune up on and all the sensors have been replaced.Now it was running beautiful all day today and i came home and parked it for a little wile, but when i came back out to do some more running around it started for a second and immediately shut off. So i tried it again and it does the same thing every time.Also ive had the fuel pump checked as well and i can hear the pump coming on when i turn on the key. Im lost can anyone give me any ideas?

Sounds like the theft deterrent has been activated. Try unlocking the doors with the key and see what happens. There should be some info in the owners manual on the theft system.
