Default 97 Grand cherokee starts then dies

Hello all, already searched on here about this and found some good advice but still stumped on this jeep. Have owned this for two months and have had nothing but problems, first it wouldn't start, changed plugs, wires, cap and rotor. No help ending up being the crankshaft sensor. Then AC leaked on this pass side ruined the carpet, sealed it up and cut carpet out. Now it starts then dies. 4.0 liter, factory security system, read on here about the ASD relay and unlocking the doors with the key. Tried the key trick no help, swapped the ASD relay with the windshield wiper relay, fired up and stayed running after that. Funny that the wipers still work?? Now two weeks later its doing it again, swapped the ASD and wiper relay back, started then died, then swapped the ASD and horn relay and it started and stayed running and horn still works?? Any help would be appreciated.

Don't know what to tell you, man. Maybe you need an exorcist.
