you guys should try cleaning your throttle body by spraying carb cleaner on both sides of the throttle plate and on the IAC air passage. I had the exact same problem with my '95 Grand Cherokee V8 and just cleaning the throttle restored normal idle for me.

I changed the egr valve last night. That fixed it from dying.

Seafoam is the shiz for TB cleaning, and fuel system cleaning...a shameless endorsement.
