Hi all,
I own 2002 3.7l Jeep KJ which until now didn't give much troubles. But lately, during the hot summer days, I have problem starting it when the engine gets hot, sometimes even after the relatively short drive. When I try to start it all the control lights turn on all right, none of them giving me any warning, but there is no any sound at all, not even click of the starter. After certain period, say 10 - 15 minutes, depending on the outside temperature, the breeze cooling the engine through the open hood, and such, when the engine cools enough, it starts normally as it should. I service my car at the official Chrysler garage, but they simply have no clue what causes this problem. My car is still the regular stock variety, except for being fitted last year with the LPG / autogas system. However, my mechanic says this is not the cause for the problem I have.
Any ideas and suggestion will be much appreciated.
