Default 97 Cherokee hard start

My jeep was stopping on me in the middle of the road and it would about 20 or 30 mins to start again or after arriving at my destination,it won't start again. When I turn the key in the ignition, it takes a while to start. If I step on the gas a bit, It will eventually start.
I just change the CPS cause I was told that was the problem but it seems their is something else that I need to look into.
Any ideas. I think it might be the starter.

Does it crank over but not start, or not crank at all? Exactly what happens when you turn the key?
