Default Problem starting

Ok what the hell, when i go to start my jeep i takes like 5 sec to start. Why so long, is it the starter? is it the fuel filter? the fuel Pump? what should i do? is there any way to find out without replacing one part at a time

i would start with a complete tune up. Cap, rotor, plugs, wires..

shouldn't be fuel necessarily.. if you have 60+ miles on the above list it wouldn't hurt to replace them regardless..

good luck
