    I have a 93 jeep cherokee. I have replaced the tranny after installing and putting everything back together it wont start. I will turn over but will not fire. Seems like its not getting fuel. I poured gas in the intake and it will start up. Any suggestions on what I should be looking for to fix this problem. Also I replaced the starter at the same time and while turning over it seems to turn over like some thing is out of round the starter dont skip or miss but it just turns like its out of round. :sick: :sick: :sick:
