And welcome to you too. :003:

Please clarify, is it a cherokee (XJ) 2.5 TD or a Grand Cherokee (WJ) 3.1 TD you have?

From the title i'd say 2000 xj and prob 4.0 cos it's an auto.

Is it definitely no fuel or is it no spark?

If the crank or cam sensor has failed it won't start and symptom will be no spark

Scan it for fault codes with any cheap scanner
