I recently purchased a 93 jeep grand cherokee and when I bought it it had some trouble starting I would always have to crank it two times before it would start. Well after having it for about 3 weeks it still turns over but refuses to start. I've replaced the spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributer cap, ignitor cap, fuel pump relay, fuel filter, fuel pump, and cleaned the air filter. It still has the same problem. What could possibly be the problem?

You could have a bad ignition switch. Check the fuel pump for power when the key is on, and when it is cranking. Should have power both ways. Also check the plugs for spark while cranking the engine. You can even crank it, and spay a little starting fluid in the throttle body. If it starts, you have a fuel issue.
