97 jeep grand cherokee 5.2 starting problem

Apr 1, 2008 10:52AM PDT

i bought my jeep 2 months ago and at first about once a week i would go to start my jeep and it would turn over but not start. i would try for a couple minutes get frustrated, then come back 10-15 min later and would start fine. the problem has gotten worse over the last couple months. now every couple times i go to start(on average) i have this problem and it often takes a lot longer time of letting sit to start. when it does start it starts as if never a problem and when running runs great no noticable loss of power or rough idle. i replaced the plugs/wires, cap/rotor, air filter, fuel pump/filters, and coil. i still have the problem. any help is much appreciated
