Any Ideas?

I have a 1989 yj jeep and when I drive it for say over a half hour and let it sit for over 20 minutes or so when I go to start it it turns over but will not start. I have to pump the gas vigorously and so times resort to having to push start it. But in the mornings it fires right up no problem at all. Any ideas what it could be?

Welcome to the Z.

I'd replace the stock POS carter carb with a Motorcraft 2100. Lots of web articles on it.

Ahh. Then consider cleaning the throttle body and replacing whatever injector setup it uses.
