Have a 1996 Cherokee with 65,000 miles. Engine just started running rough, but I think it's an electrical problem. First time started this morning very rough. Then tried to start it at around noon, and it would not even crank...after a couple try's, it started. Then tonight, it would crank, but the engine would not fire worth a darn. Help, please....

check for spark or spray some starter fluid down the throttle body to see if it fires.
