I'm wondering if someone could help me. I'm looking at buying a Jeep
Cherokee with a 2.8L
but will not start and the guy said that the starter is out of line and
tends to jump out of line. So if anyone knows anything about this please
help.
thanks all

Who knows what he's talking about? I do know that I
wouldn't give anyone 2 cents for a Jeep Cherokee with
the GM 2.8 engine in it. You are just asking for trouble.

RUN don't walk away from this money pit. The 2.8 is baaad news and in a jeep
it's nothing but a bastardized AMC product
