Troubleshooting Help needed

Alright guys ive finally decided to cave and make my own post regarding some questions. Ive got a 2000 Jeep Cherokee XJ ive been running into some problems since picking her up a few months ago. When cold and even sometimes when warmed up (less often) I run into the issue where when creeping or easing out (as in just cracking open the throttle body i.e minimal gas) from a stop the rpms start to spotter like crazy and sometimes nears a stall. My corrections/fixes so far, she wasnt charging/holding a charge needed both an alternator and battery. Cylinder 3 misfire replaced spark plugs and the ignition rail. Replaced both cam and crank sensors (factory synchronizer still), replaced the throttle body which came with all the sensors. All of these fixes have seemed to make my problem slightly improve so im on the right track id hope but I cant seem to nail down the ultimate cause of the problem ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED THIS IS DRIVING ME NUTS.
