Default '05 Cherokee, 270k+ miles starting issue

My '05 has been exhibiting this starting problem for about a month. After it sits for several hours it will start then immediately shut down. I can continue to start the engine and it will continue to shut down for 3-4 tries, the it will start and stay running. Once started it runs fine. This morning it did the same thing and on the 4th try I gave it a liittle gas and rev'ed it up. Stayed running and ran perfectly. This doesn't happen all the time. This time I hadn't driven it for 3 days.

Thanks for any help with this issue.

Maybe fuel pressure??

You will probably get more responses if you post to the Grand Cherokee section instead of the Cherokee section...

Actually it's a '95. Sorry about that.
