Starting problems I have my car at the shop because of starting problems. I have a 1994 Jeep Cherokee SE. On Christmas eve it would not start so we replaced the battery. Then yesterday it would not start. In all I have jumped it four times. I took it to the mechanic. He said that the alternator is fine, the battery is charged and the starter seemed fine. It was starting. Then he called back and said he narrowed it down to two things. One was the starter and the other was motor compression in the engine. It was that he would recommending getting rid of it. How does motor compression relate to starting the car?

What is diagnostic code 22 for a 1994 Jeep Cherokee grand limited

That code is for the engine coolant temperature sensor. "...input above maximum acceptable voltage." I would try a new temp. sensor. If that doesn't fix it, you may need to have an engine scanner hooked up, and see what the sensor is sending to the computer, and go from there.
A bad coolant temp. sensor can cause hard starting like your symptoms.

My 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the 5.2L is very difficult to start if it has not been run in the previous 6 hours. Replaced ignition coil but didn't solve the problem. After sitting overnight it

Low fuel pressure.
You need to check the fuel pressure on the first crank and watch it as it is running.
Requires a special gauge.
If it were just a starting problem I would say it could be a pump relay, but not if it runs rough for 5 min.
Might be a dirty filter or problem in the tank.

It is not starting its like not catctching

94? I'd start looking towards a fuel pump. Listen for a 2 second buzz from the rear. If you don't hear it time to shop for a new fuel pump.P.S. Rarely is it a fuse.......
