Startup Problem with '04 Unlimited
Hello,
I have an '04 Unlimited with an annoying problem at startup. For the
last couple days occasionally when I try to start the vehicle, it will
crank and crank, but not catch. However, if I turn it off for a second
and try again, it starts right up. It normally happens after it's been
sitting a while. Any ideas where to look? I realize it's still under
warranty, but I hate dealing with the dealer so much that if it's
relatively minor, I'd rather give it a go myself.
Thanks,
K.

Actually, it always cranks, just won't start consistently. This
happens if it sits for a little while, like say, an hour or even a
little less. Once it starts, it runs fine.

Sounds like the fuel pressure is bleeding down.
