no start and stall out
Thanks for any help in advance:
My problem:
1995 Jeep Cherokee 4WD 4.0
Sometimes it won't start (5 or 6 tries) but after a few minutes it
will usually start. While driving it will die on me occasionally. It
will usually start after a few cranks.
What I did so far:
I get spark;
Changed plug and distributor wires;
Replaced distributor cap, rotor and cam position sensor;
Batter voltage ok; and
Never got to the point of checking for fuel because it usually starts
before I get there.
Please help because I feel I cannot trust this vehicle on a trip. Any
ideas will be appreciated.
Thanks
Hank (from PA)

Hi Hank,
What it is ninety, nine percent of the time is the Crankshaft
Position Sensor, or it's connection:
http://www.off-road.com/jeep/cheroke...tdcsensor.html
Although, you're due for a pump, when it doesn't start, just turn
the ignition to the on position and listen for it's run noise, it should
run for two seconds every time to turn the ignition on.
