Hi,
I have a 1992 Cherokee and I had a leak in my fuel pressure regulator so I replaced it with a part from O'Reilly's. Since then I have long crank times when starting. I read that it may have something to do with fuel pressure.
I had no problem before replacing it even though it was spewing a lot of gas. And it runs fine otherwise. I have inspected and fussed with the vacuum line, it's old and had some cracks in the boot but I put a wrap of electrical tape around it and still long cranks.
Could it be a bad part from O'Reilly's? I think that it was almost $100. Maybe I should get one from Mopar?
I watched some videos on troubleshooting fuel pressure and Amazon has a pressure gauge kit for $25 but the hose isn't long enough for me to see it from the driver's seat. My neighbor will have one and I'll borrow it when I see him.
I need to read this carefully:

But until then does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
Marc
