Aloha !
My 2012 Jeep Jk will randomly just stall if I’m at a stop. It will however start right back up and run fine. On even a rare occasion after restarting it will try to idle high and once in gear it will die. Any help would be great

FYI, You will get more traction if you ask this question on the Member General Discussion or Rig Q&A pages.

Have you enquired at wranglerforum.com ? Amazing amount of jeep knowledge there. Sounds to me like maybe a fuel pump issue. Good luck.

Hi there! Is it stock? Does it have any aftermarket contraption to "improve" air-fuel mixture, by any chance?
If it has, try removing it.
If it doesn't, try cleaning all grounding points. If it persists, check if the Crank Position Sensor (and its wirings) is in good conditions.
