When you start the jeep and you drive it for about a mile, or when it just starts to warm up, it starts to hesitate when you give it gas. It also pops in the exaust. Iy dose this for about 60 seconds, then clears up and runs great until you shut it off. When you start it up, it starts all pver again, drives me nuts!
