Default random sputtering to a stall

seen a few other threads with same issue but no one seemed to have it resolved. so I have a 94 v8 zj that randomly sputters and stalls when shifted out of park. it will also randomly stall while driving but slowing down. I was told it was a crank shaft position sensor. I want to know if this is the culprit before I go out and buy the part and still have the issue. I do have a check engine light and I went to have it read but I needed the old small plug instead of the long thin one.

Have you checked the throttle body and IAC and give them a cleaning?
That's a common cause for the issue you are having?
