When taking off the jeep will hesitate while taking off, it causes the jeep to jerk and hop. It has done this in 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears. When it does it you can push the clutch in and the engine seems to run rough, however if you can get the jeep up to road speed it has not done it. The other thing is it does not do this all of the time. The check engine light has not come on and it has new spark plugs in it.
