Default starting problems

I've looked online and still haunt found a solid answer, but my 90 4.0 jeep runs pretty good but it always takes about 5 sec of cranking before it fires up when its cold. It also takes a bit so start up when warm but not as long. I have new injectors, fuel pressure regulator, cap and rotors. Any ideas? Thanks

Try the newbie "Read this, section" on the first tech or mod page; not to be rude, but I find it helpful when I have any questions/problems.

Again you might find a possible answer or better yet , a diagnostic that will tell you what and how to test. Good luck
