Default Jeep cranks and wants to start but won’t

I had that issue and mine was a rotten wire mesh cable between the
engine head and firewall.

TRY AN IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE. THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME ON TWO
DIFFERENT CARS, BOTH WERE THIS VALVE. IF THE ENGINE CRANKS AND YOU CAN
KEEP IT RUNNING BY HOLDING DOWN THE ACCELERATOR, THIS IS LIKELY YOUR
PROBLEM.
