I would consider checking the fuel pump relay first. I'm only a backyard mechanic but its the cheapest and easiest place to start.

Don't get consumed with the lights. Have summone "spray" 'Ether' or carb/brake clean into air tube, between air filter and throttle body. If it starts, more than likely, lack of fuel/fuel pressure. Also try cranking over, while somone hammers on the gas tank, with a large rubber hammer. if it starts=fuel pump? or you can hook up a fuel pressure gauge. Good Luck Joe S.

just went through this over several months and after extnsive research and getting towed home I ended up replacing the cpu, i.e. the main computer. I could give you all the details but it would be a wast of your time reading it. Replaced it myself and I know you could too. Love my jeep too. Lots of fun. No doubt this is problem. Just call around for best price. A good mech. could replace in less than half an hour. can answer any questions.

to me it sounds like the capacitors inside the ecm when they are cold it takes a bit to warm them up its an easy job disconnect the battery take out ecm behind water reserve open ecm u will see three capacitors replace them this solved my problem which was the same as yours i have a 94 also laredo after u replace them refill the gaps with silicon NOT water based silicon and ur done final cost 40 bucks alot cheaper than a refurbished ecm
