Got an '89 jeep cherokee, haven't really had starting problems.
Been sitting for a little while.
Started it the other day and and it fired right up, let it run for about 5 min.
shut her off and wouldn't start again for nothing.
Came back the next day, wouldn't start for about 5 minutes worth of trying,
cussing away I gave it one last try, fired up great. Drove her about 30 min.,
she runs good shut her off to park her...wouldn't start again
what the....
crankshaft gear sensor maybe...???
any other ideas...
Oh by the way on day two (the 5 minutes of trying) I even used starting fluid...nothing.
She turns over but wont start RELIABLY. I'm looking to sell her but I can't sell
it like this...
