1996 xj starting problem
I have a 1996 cherokee classic 4.0 automatic, it starts and runs fine but after I drive it for a while and if I shut off and go in to the store or shut it off for a few min it cranks but doesnt fire, if I let it set for a while 15-30 min it starts right up with no problem, temp is at normal range, I notice the fule pump doesnt seem to be kicking on when this happens so was thinking maybe relay or someone said maybe crank sensor?
Thanks
Thanks

I've only been here a short time and seen a few of these. What is up with Cherokee not starting? Mine was similar, but it doesn't crank. I have to jumper the starter to get it to turn over. I bought a hayes manual, but there was like a half a page on the subject.
someone gave me a useful link on ignition though: https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f2/sti...7/#post1217529
Actually it was freegdr seen above. Listen to this guy!
