slow start and high idle(couple seconds) when coldmrcal62 11-17-2008, 05:47 PM help new problem on 98 cherokee 4.0 when warmed up everything great 72mino 11-23-2008, 10:39 PM When you say slow start do you mean it turns over slowly or you have to crank for a long time for it to start? mrcal62 12-07-2008, 08:38 AM good fast cranking just slow to fire. gtmud 12-15-2008, 03:10 AM Try cylce the key on then off a couple times then start the engine. Any differance? If so you have a possible stopped up fuel filter or a fuel pump starting to go. High idle? How high? It is normal to idle at about 1-1200 rpm when cold. teg_b18c1 01-09-2009, 11:40 AM Are taking about when you first start it you it automatically revs up to like 1500 rpm for 2 seconds then drops down to a normal cold high idle. If so below will fix your problem. Clean your throttle body really good. The best way is to go buy a throttle body gasket and take it off and clean it on a bench with a tooth brush & cleaner. Also remove the IAC (Idle Air Control) clean it really well it is probably sticking and gummed up. Also check and re-adjust the TPS sensor. It is a very easy job.
