Recently my Jeep has started taking considerably longer to start, it turns over for 15 seconds or more. When it finally starts it chugs and runs rough for a minute, almost as if it isn't getting enough fuel. Upon starting there is a smell of gas inside the cab. There are no visible leaks on the gound and there is no hesitstion of power at any speed. A friend of mine stated he thought it may be a fuel pump or an injector. How do I find out for sure?

Check the fuel pressure and comeback with the readings -this will knock out the fuel filter/leaking fuel pressure regulator and fuel pump.
