My fiance and I just bought a 2000 XJ sport 4.0L automatic tranny with 110k on the clock. The engine has never started for us on the first try. I always turn the key to on and wait for the fuel pump to prime. I can crank the engine forever on the first try, but it won't start. Normally I will crank for about 3 seconds, release key for about 2 seconds, then crank again. The engine has all but once started on that 2nd try. Battery is good. Engine always idles good and never sputters when driving. I'm going to clean the throttle body tomorrow to make sure that's not causing a problem with the TPS. What does this sound like?
