1996 Grand Cherokee Trouble Starting

Recently bought a jeep simply for transportation purposes-it's an island beater. The previous owners replaced the alternator and just a month ago my jeep had trouble starting. The jeep would turn on and the engine immediately dies. If I revved the engine, it would stay on, but as soon as I release the gas pedal, the jeep dies.

The battery seemed fine, the lights and dash would light up every time I turned the key on "on"

I would try the next day and the jeep starts up just fine. However, throughout the day of driving, the jeep would eventually have trouble starting again. This has happened for a couple weeks and now the engine doesn't turn on. I replaced the starter-it didn't help.

What else could be the problem?
