It's not a major problem...yet. I don't think it's the starter but when I start the Jeep cold it cranks longer than it should and usually doesn't fire up on the first try. The next time I turn the key, it fires right up. Do I have a problem with my injectors? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The fuel line is just losing pressure after it sits for a while. Could be the fuel pump. Sit tight I'm sure someone will chime in with some better advice.

I don't really have any advice for you other than to say mine does that too. Since I'm not mechanically inclined whatsoever, I had it "checked out" and they said, "It's a Jeep thing. Understand?" So, I just got used to it.

The fuel line is just losing pressure after it sits for a while.Yeap, not really a big deal. Unless it really bothers you, I'd deal with it, until it becomes a real problem. (Like an injector dumping fuel and fouling plugs all the time, or the fuel pump not pumping fuel all the time).

Most vehicles will run nearly forever like this.

Thanks for the help. Yeah, I can deal with it. She runs fine so I can't complain. Thanks again.
