    Problem solved!!! After taking the jeep to the shop.
    We discovered that there was water in the bottom of the fuse box. It was shorting out before it got to the fuse box. After drying it out it started right up....
    Thanks for all the help though.....

    have u checked the fuses under the hood?

  • Anonymous Mar 18, 2014

    Have replaced dist cap and module in dist. Replaced coil. Replaced ECM Still does it. Radiator is not getting hot. But if outside temp gets above 70 it will run fine and then just randomly die. Will turn over but not start until it sits for about 30 minutes.

I have tested the fuse's under the hood, the jeep was in the garage with a soft top on it no rain inside of it that I have found, fuse box is dry.

Why wont it start
Yes, it could be. The crank sensor is responsible for a lot of jeeps not getting spark. First check if the green/black wire to the coil has voltage with key on. That is the primary current to coil. If voltage there, it could be the crank sensor. If no voltage to coil with key on, then problem is that computer is not sending power to the coil. That will have to be checked-there is a relay involved-the Automatic Shut Down relay in the under hood fuse-relay box.

1991 jeep wont start
Did you replace the coil because it wouldn't start before? If it ran before, there must be a mis-connection somewhere. I assume by your stating that 'it turns but will not crank', to mean that the engine will crank over with the starter but won't start and run. True?
