On my '97 4.0 G.C. there are three pins, with the connecter in hand the external ramped connection should point up, ohm across the right and center pins and you should get infinite resistance. I had a major stalling problem and did check the sensor with engine off, and it read fine. But when running there was an intermittent hiccup of sorts that was enough to shut the engine off. I had to have a shop diagnose it. It was replaced and the car runs great.

I wanna know whats the problem with your car, cause I think mine could be the CPS, when I'm on 3rd gear and I hit the clutch pedal to go to 2nd gear, rpm's goes down real fast until my car just stops.
