I have a 92 Cherokee. 4.0 L and ive been having startin issues. Starts fine for awhile(a few days) then randomly wont start after starting earlier in the day. Everything turns on and if i wait 10 to 15 minutes it will start. Just replaced starter a few weeks ago and battery terminals are clean. Need help!

aight you checked the terminals, but what about the battery, it might be grounding out somewhere, look for frayed wires

I would replace both the cam sensor and crank sensor.

Thanks. I described the problem to a friend he said I have a "hot start" problem and to update anyone trying to help that it is that.
