I did not see anything related with a simple search.
I am finding that the 3.8 engine in my JK is slow to crank after driving it and getting the engine up to operating temp for a good five mile each way drive.
after the engine sits for a good 20 minutes and the ambient temps increase under the hood I am noticing slow cranking from the engine. I know there is a heat shield on the starter which I assume is to aid with this since the converters are very hot. I am assuming my yellow top is in good shape and I know my connections are tight. I have not taken cold and hot engine amp reading while cranking I have not noticed this issue with other JK's I have driven and was curious if others have the same issue or if I need to look deeper
