I had a similar problem last night as well. Went to leave around 9 PM last night, when I went to crank the jeep it just kept turning over like it wanted to start, but nothing. If I gave it some gas it would finally start, but as soon as I let off the gas it would die again. Did this process about 4 times before it finally cranked up on its own. Drove it home, and it drove absolutely fine. This morning I went out at 5:30 to make sure it would start for work and it fired right up. Mine is a 98 sport, what year is yours?
