SOURCE: problem starting

If the check engine light does NOT come on when cranking, at the times when it won't start, and the relays are clicking and buzzing, then your ECU is in need of repair. The engine will only start after the check engine light comes on and the ecu is what controls that. ECU is likely going bad, causing the delayed start problem typical of early 90's jeeps. Reasonably priced repair or replacement services for your jeep ECU are available on ebay.

When it does not crank, check to see if voltage is getting to the starter. If it is, hit the starter. If it starts , replace it.

I had a similar issue where the alarm went off, pulled the battery to silence, and upon re-connecting it the Jeep wouldn't start. It's a protection mechanism built into the security system to prevent tampering/bypassing the system. The computer goes into lockdown and won't start...

To clear it you have to reconnect the battery and leave it sit. It's supposed to be a 60min cycle, but it seemed like it took longer for me. I plugged it in before leaving for work (in my wife's vehicle) and she tried starting it several hours later when she needed to run an errand and it started right up.

STARTIN

check your connections. turn the key to the on position and leave it sit for a minute or so then turn it off and try again. could be a security key issue. try a different key if you have one. you could also have a bad starter if none of this helps

Sounds like the drainback valve inside the pump is shot...try just turning the key on and waiting a minute and see if it starts that way.

99 cherokee sport starts hard after sitting over night or 3 to 4 hrs. starts right away if key is turned on and off2to3 times represurizing the system

Could be related to the fuel system. What have you replaced or checked so far. I would look at the battery and the charging system. Also look for a fuel leak, pump pressure, and the vehicles maintenance/repair history.
