Just a quick question... My Jeep cranks for about 15-20 seconds before starting. I'm just looking for the usual suspects. As I get answers I will test and report back.

It doesn't idle hard, once started it is perfectly fine. No weird sounds from starter. Fuel pump seems to work just fine, what else might I do/check?

 

Disregard, I got some culprits, both from this forum and jeepforum. For some reason when I use our forum search it just stinks. Can't find anything. Pray to Google, and BAM found an old post (2011) with good info.

If anyone has followed my posts, I did have to replace my oil adapter o-ring, as it was leaking badly. Aaaand right below that is my starter! I'm thinking oily dirty starter is my first looking place. Gonna YouTube how to take it apart and rebuild my starter. Shouldn't be hard, it's just an electric motor with a gear at the end.

Lots of info about a fuel regulator that could be going out. If the starter rebuild doesn't work I guess that's my next place to test. Just gonna do the "poor man's test" by turning the key to start, wait for fuel pump shutoff, turn off and repeat 2x.

I already refreshed the dipstick ground, so I know it's not that. New filter, so it's not that, unless I have crud in the tank. I do still need to do a cap/rotor, spark plugs and wires install, but I need money. I also wanna get a set of injectors, who sells them here?
