[QUOTE="Thathighcanadianguy, post: 454971, member: 24653"] Hi everyone. Just picked up a 2014 Sahara Unlimited (manual). It’s got 134,000kms on it. The issue that I’m having is in the mornings or after it sits for more than a few hours, it cranks a few times longer and or it’ll stutter as it starts and the RPMs will drop and then it’ll just start up fine after a second. I’m thinking there is a fuel bleed back issue, before I go through the trouble of dropping the tank and replacing the fuel pump assembly, could the issue be anything else? Note that it does not idle rough, there is no loss of power, fuel mileage is about average, and after the hard start, if I turn it off then back on, it doesn’t have the hard starting issue (I’m assuming because there is adequate pressure in the fuel lines now) and in addition, when I’m starting it, I turn the key to the on position and wait at least 5-10 seconds before starting [/QUOTE]
