Cranks but won't start on first try.
 

I have owned this 1998 cherokee sport 4 liter from new. It has recently developed this symptom. Engine cranks but will not start, release key, do not turn off ignition switch, crank again and it starts right away. If any one has had this symptom and found or knows the solution please reply. Any body I ask replys with a smile and said it is a Chrysler thing.
