Default 92 cherokee rough start.

I have a 92 4.0L 4 door cherokee that has a rought start. Don't get me wrong it always starts but sometimes it takes more than one try. I replaced the starter and battery. Next I'm do the distributor and spark plugs. Someone told me that it might be the fuel pump. I was wondering how I can test this or should I just replace it.
thank you

where do you test it at though, fuel bar? Where does it come into the engine compartment at or can I just test it right at the line coming off the tank.

Fuel filter ???? Its worth checking and cheaper easier to replace than a fuel pump.
