I have a 1990 Jeep Cherokee Limited with 118000 miles. Straight 6 - 4wd. It generally runs great. Has a minor leak in a seal in the engine - no oil drips. Anyway, I drove it yesterday and parked it overnight in the garage. This morning, I went to start it and it would not start.
The engine would turn over and over, but no start. Usually it takes the engine 3-5 times to turn over while I hold the key forward, but this time nothing.
Since the battery is getting old I thought I should charge it and try again (I did have it tested a few weeks ago and it was fine). Well, nothing happened - although, when I tried to crank it the battery gauge would drop down to a low level. So, I tried using the jumper cables to jump it off - same thing - it just kept turning over, but wouldn't start.
A friend of mine felt the fuel lines and said that fuel was running through them fine.
We changed around the relay switches (there are 4 of them) and nothing happened.
Then we looked at the Ignition Coil and Module (?) right next to the relay switches. He said he did not get a spark at the coil - or at the plug going into the distributor cap.
So, I took off the Coil and Module and had the Coil tested at AutoZone - it was fine. They said they could not test the Module.
So, I guess I will put them back on in the morning.
I really don't want to have to tow it into a mechanic if I can help it - Please can someone help me?
I did have one friend suggest that maybe the timing chain slipped, which would mean I need to get a new one? I thought they never messed up?
Thanks to anyone who can help!!!!!
