If it start with starting fluid I would dare say it has spark.
Missed that part, read too fast. Good call. Fuel supply problem. Plugged filter or line or your injectors are plugged... but I can't see all of them going at once.

What year is your Jeep? Fuel filter in the tank possibly? Some years have them as part of or by the pump inside the tank. But a filter or injector problem usually won't cause it to just suddenly die. Have you checked ALL of your fuses, your ASD relay, CPS, and o2 sensor wires?? My o2 sensor wires wore through at the drive shaft and was blowing the fuse to the ASD relay last year, took some very thorough looking to find and fix the problem.

I would have started with the fuses long before taking it to a shop.

Like Herzog said, I would pull your fuel line off the fuel rail, if 4.0 it should quick disconnect and turn the key on and see if its pumping out fuel. I had a pump go bad, I could hear in running for a spell and thought it was building pressure but until I pulled off the rail I didnt realize i wasnt getting fuel.

it is the 4.0 if its not the fuse that usually blows on me then I will try that out. thanks guys
Not necessarily, on a warm-er day starting fluid will ignite under compression only, doesn't necessarily need a spark, Not a good test for "has-sparky" little gasoline down the intake is a much better test, or a timing light...
