Check under the hood on the driver's side near the firewall, screwed to the top of the inside of the fender. There is a transistor (I think that's what it's called)... point is, there are two wires attached to it. If either is loose, corroded, or disconnected, it will do exactly that. It's for the fuel pump. When you start the engine, it uses a different circuit route than when it's just running- routing around that transistor. When the engine switches back to normal, it runs through that broken line, and uses what little gas is left in the line, and dies. This may not be your issue, but if it is, checking will avoid a lot of headache.

Install a new crank shaft sensor. I had the same problem with my wife's Jeep. It would run fine fore days at a time then quit. When the crank sensor goes out their is no spark or injection of fuel into the engine. This is a Hall Sensor. They can be intermittent, and affected bu heat. If your Jeep will not start, try freeing the sensor and see if it starts. Cold Freeze is used in electronics to test

1994 jeep grand cherokee laredo starting problems

Check to see if the fuel pump is running after it shuts down...could be a relay or the pump itself (overheating internally) Checked the fuel filter yet? Some crank sensors need to be shimmed. If it's too close to the flywheel even though you recently changed it, if it's too close to the wheel it can fail again. May not be the case but worth checking over. Also check the ceramic resistor on the left fender near the master cylinder if you have one. That too can cause problems.

1999 4.0L Jeep Grand Cherokee shuts down after 20-30 minutes.

I'd suggest the ignition control module, however I'd have a certified mechanic check it out just in case...
