1st check for a clogged filter. It's on the driver side back near the fuel tank.

Then check the pump by turning the key on while you have the filter off. Be sure to capture the gasoline that may come out of the line @ 15 PSI.

There's a fuse for the fuel pump if it doesn't run, check your owners manual.

The fuel pump is in the tank and if it's never been changed there's a good chance that is the problem, as they do tend to fail after 6 or 7 years of normal driving.

Why does a 1988 Jeep Wrangler stall when you stop?

If its the 6 cylinder, its the carb according to most people I talk to. A lot of them recommend replacing the stock one with a weber (from ebay); good luck with that. On the other side, what I do is use a high quality carb cleaner, spray it right down the throat. Workds great for a while. Also check your vaccum hoses - when they're wrong, your idle suffers.
