Default 93 jeep country not starting

I have a 1993 jeep country 4.0L. It has been giving me problems with starting. At first it would not start back up after getting fuel, or just running in somewhere real quick.. Took about 10-15 mins then it would start up like nothing had happened. As the weeks went on it was taking longer and longer for it to start back up. Now it wont start at all. I have replaced the ignition switch, and had the starter checked(it was good), tried arc'ing the starter with key in ON position, checked my starter relay. I'm am at a loss at the moment. Any help would be appreciated.

Its your nss no doubt about it u can either clean it, by pass it or get a new one! If u get a new one its gonna cost aboust 250 to 300 if u clean it ill post a link on here and by passing makes it where it can start in any gear.

It can be a number of things. If you are sure it getting gas check and see if you are getting a spark. It's a process of elimination. Yes, it could be you NSS but it could also be CPS or coil if your not getting a spark. Let us know what you find.

Well i have fuel moving, and i have spark.. I bought a new battery today cause the old one needed replacing anyhow.. I tried to arc the started again today, and it tried to turn over (keyword "Tried"), but no luck.. When the jeep wasn't starting after I had just shut it off, it was even trying to turn over... I'm just praying it's not a wiring issue. I also tried jiggling the the arm in Park, and Neutral and cant get it to even try. Maybe I'll have someone run a diagnostic and see what we can come up with.
