Takes a while to start

Hi,
My fiance's 1990 Jeep Cherokee inline 6 is having problems starting. It will start but always turns over 10-15 times. It has also started stalling in parking lots and at stop lights. The idle is not adjustable. It also started having a little erratic idle, sometimes it will idle up to 2,000 rpms for a minute and sometimes it will idle down to 600 rpms. The idle is not always a problem, maybe once every week or so. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
Jordan
