Hi guys, got a new problem today. 
My 1996 4.0 is having difficulty starting, you have to hold the accelerator to the floor and crank it over. It will then start for a couple of seconds and die. I have to repeat this about 4/5 times before it will actually run, at this point it will misfire. No known problems when its actually running just initially starting it. Any suggestions?? Thought it may be due to the fact I hadnt used it for a couple of days as by the time I had done 15 miles to work it started as normal. But on the return journey of 15 miles and half hour rest it failed to fire up straight away.
