My jeep turns over very slow when I try to start it. The
battery has been checked and is not the problem. It will
only turn over a few revolutions then stop

Was the battery 'Load Tested'? Check your battery cables and the ground at the engine. You may have a bad starter. A volt meter can be used to test while cranking the engine over. If the voltage drops below 10.5 volts, either the battery is bad or the starter is pulling too much juice.

Thank you, 11 volts under load. Going to check the starter in the morning. When engine started this morning it cranked like it was out of time but started and ran fine. Engine start cranking odd for about a week. Thanks again for the reply
