95 Cherokee Sport - Rough Idle/Shaking at start & squealing noise
Hi all,
When I attempt to start the car (after letting it sit overnight), it takes about 5 seconds for it to crank (sometimes have to tap the gas pedal to get it to crank). When it cranks, it has a rough idle, and shakes/vibrates for about 3 minutes (I usually let it sit until it returns to normal idle, but today, decided to put it in gear, and the car died, so I had to crank it up again), and then returns to normal idle w/ no shaking/vibrating.
Could it be the TPS, CPS, or a spark plug?
BTW, don't know if it makes any difference, but before I bought the car, it had been sitting for three years unused.
Also, I replaced the pickup coil -- it really helped the delay in starting up.

Regarding the squealing noise, I belive it's from the fan pulley, does anyone know where to get a bearing for it? Or do I just need to buy a new pulley?
Thanks in advance...
