my 2006 rubicon sputters during acceleration, and the check engine light came on; my mechanic's computer said it was a faulty crankshaft position sensor; he replaced it and that fixed it on the ride home; the next morning when i started it up, the same problem reoccurred; any ideas?

What codes did you have and what do you have now? You can pull codes as follows without a scanner, although it is easier if you can just get a cheap scanner.

Are you sure he replaced the crankshaft sensor and not the camshaft sensor? What brand of sensor?

im not sure what e did, only that he fixed it temporarily, then it happened again the next morning
it is now june, i've replaced my ecm computer and the problem persists; first thing in the morning (i live in hawaii, never gets below 68 degrees), the jeep sputters when rpms get to about 2500; after turning the jeep off at work, it works great for the rest of the day, never sputtering regardless of the rpms; the check engine light is usually on, but sometimes stays off for a day or so; has anyone ever heard of similar instances?
Often problems like this are solved when you tell us the codes. There are many ways to read the codes, pick one and post.
