I have a 1993 Grand Jeep Cherokee. 4.0 engine. 6 cylinder. It starts fine. When I go tf o drive it, its like it wants to skip or cut off. Like it don't wanna gear that it just wants to stop. It stays running. Sometimes when it does it my jeep shakes a little and it idols weird when i stop. What could be the problem? I just put a rebuilt transmission in it, new tires, new brakes. Help

I have had a few of these now with badly worn distributors, i would be checking this even if just to eliminate it as they are a known problem.
