So I dropped the tank and replaced the fuel pump following instructions here:
http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f11/fuel-filter-pump-replacement-97s-up-138580/
Worked just fine, except the Bosch pump had a slightly different fuel "sock" design to filter. Everything went back together and once it's running it definitely works well- good power and no hesitation.
The only problem is that I still need to "cycle the key" a few times to prime it otherwise it takes 5-10 seconds of cranking before it starts. Is there something I missed? Is the fuel regulator separate and do I have to drop the tank to replace it?
