My 2001 Grand Cherokee takes longer to start sometimes. Whenever I turn the key, sometimes it will start right up, sometimes it will just turn over a few seconds before starting. The battery, altenator, starter all checked out ok. Something with the fuel system? Thanks...

Fuel pressure is probably leaking down too much, injector(s) leak down, check valve in fuel system. If you hold the key in "run" each time for a couple seconds before starting and it starts right up faster or normally then, then it needs checking out as a fuel pressure problem,
