  1. XJ Cherokee Technical Forum
    93 cherokee, 2wd, auto, 4.0l 6cyl (no upgrades at all) Came outside four days ago and it wouldn't start, go figure. To be fair this is my brothers jeep, while i love my brother, i'm not so fond of this jeep at the moment. When key is turned to start the motor, no catch, no crank, no turn...

    My 89 yj takes forever to start and then once it fires it revs high to about 2,100 for a couple seconds. When I start the car I do about a 6 second turn over then stop, then another try and after 3 seconds usully then it starts. Immediately followed with a loud grinding rev that last multable...

    I had my 04 Rubicon sitting up and started it off and on for about 2 years. Last time I went to start it wouldn't. Sprayed some start fluid and it ran for a short time and stopped. Primed with gas and it ran for a while then stopped. After waiting a half day or so it starts, runs for about a...

    So I have been having trouble with my stroker eating up starters. The engine has been in for about 2 weeks not and just killed the 3rd starter. The first one was old and just died. We put quite a load on it so that one was kind of expected. The second one died when the Jeep backfired and broke...

    Hi. I have Grand Cherokee 2011 Hemi. Recently the car started giving me problems when starting, and the dealership cannot diagnose the problem. The car starts perfectly fine, and then after about 2-3 seconds the engine cuts off clean. This happens several times until eventually it stays...
  6. KJ Liberty Forum
    I am looking for ideas on identifying a strange intermittent starting issue. Of the 2x a day I start my 2006 Jeep Liberty to drive to work, 2-3 times a week when I crank it to start I have to turn the key and hold it longer than I used to in order to get it to start. A few times I had to crank...

    Last week my '07 wrangler would not start, and it didn't show any signs leading up to the issue. Already replaced starter and crank sensor this weekend, the TIPM has already been replaced as we'll back in 2007 from a recall on the part. It cranks and I can hear a clicking but it will not turn...

    I purchased a 2007 Grand Cherokee one year ago. 4 instances in the past 3 months this vehicle has failed to start and I have had to tow it to the dealer. On each occurrence there is no response when I turn the key. Absolutely nothing. The battery is fine and attempting to jump start makes...

    Hi all. My Jeep just quit on my on the highway last week and I looked through the threads on here and thought I had it all figured out.

    My 2006 5.7 hemi sputters at start up when the engine is cold. Once I can get it through the sputter and up to about 2.5 rpms, it seems to warms up and begins to run ok. Then it runs as normal. It had an engine code showing misfire. The computer indicated cylinders 2-4-6-8 were misfiring. I...
