1994 Jeep Cherokee HARD START

I own a 1994 Jeep Cherokee. The problem with it is that when you turn it over it wont start until you give it ''wide open' throttle. The fuel pressure is fine (35 psi) and the ignition is working fine too.You can hold down the throttle before you start it and then turn it over it will start fine.
Thanks
Wade

    It is a 4.0. It wont start at all if you dont hold the gas down. The fuel pressure is fine but what is odd about it is that it will start fine with wide open throttle.

    It does not have a problem going up a hill. My dad is an ase certified mechanic for 22 yrs. At first we belived it was the fuel pump but the pressure was fine. We even checked the distributer like you did and that didnt fix it. Thanks for the help tho.

    We believe now that it is the Intake Coolant Temperature Censer. We ran a computer diagonstics on it and it came up with a code 17 which is the Censor.

    So it worked for you no problem then i need to try that out.

    to be honest with you we are still looking for the solution, We now believe that it is something to do with the coils when it first starts up. There is a resistor that cuts down the volts from the battery from 12 to 6. We think its something to do with that. Like not getting enough spark to start it or something.
    Thanks alot for you help sorry about the wait.

I had a shifting problem. The car would start in the wrong gear and shift at wrong times. I repaced the governor postion sensor and tranny fluid and the problem has been fixed for several years. Did you replace the tranny fluid?

open your owners manual. if you havent already and see if there is a reset proceedure if so and light is still on go to a firestone or dealer and see if you may have a faulty tpms (tire pressure monitor system). or you may just need there tool to reset light. and yes it might cost you somthing to do it.

It is likely one of your battery cables loose. Same thing just happened to me today. What you need to do is first lock the doors, and close them. Then you need to disconnect, and reconnect the battery cable, then if the security lights still blink you must use your key to unlock the door, then it should stop blinking, and start just fine.

1994 jeep grand cherokee 5.2 turn over but wont start

If the check engine light does not light up, on the dash, before trying to start the jeep then the computer ecu may be in need of repair. If the check light does come on before cranking, then it might be on of a number of sensors that has gone bad.

1994 jeep, wont start, wont run

It sounds like you may have a bad connection somewhere. Start with your battery cables and then look at all of your ground wires as well. When you try to start your jeep see if the wires from the battery get hot.

1994 grand cherokee gives me a hard time starting in the morning no feul in rail ill crank and crank then ill hear the pump turn on and shell start up no drive problems it drive fine only when i try to...

Fuel pump is bleeding back so it isn't holding pressure in the lines. So when it sits long enough it is hard to start. Try turning the key on and then off wait 15 secs or so and turn key on and then off again do this one more time and see if starts. If so then you will need to replace the fuel pump in the tank soon.

it could be anything realy!
get it checked again where you had it done last time as timing may have slipped its not uncomman!
