Hello everyone Im new to the forum but not with my Jeep. I have a 2000 Sport 4L with 107000 miles on her. No previous problems, original owner with a tune up back in Jan. I recently moved out to southern cali a few months ago from MI and have a question.

She has been a little tough to start the last few months (few turns before she starts) although not a huge problem she was always a great starter. Of note, I have been riding my motorcycle to work over the past few months and have not been driving her but twice a week. This am it was 33 degrees and I decided to take her to work. I turned the key, she turned over but wouldnt start. I did this a few times and eventually added a little gas. She finally turned over but I had to keep her at about 2-3 RPM to keep her going. I drove to work and when I put her in park she was not idleing well, kind of sputtering and shaking a little. I returned a few minutes later and she cranked over just fine without the shaking or starting issues. No dummy lights activated. Any ideas? I will search the forum but wanted to ask you all first. Thanks.

 

I mean, it's hard to diagnose with very little info like that but if I had to guess, I would say it's fuel related. Especially because you dont drive it much. Good Luck!!

 

Take it to your local parts store and have them check to see if theres codes. SOmetimes there are codes even when your Check Engine light is not on.

 

I'm on it.
