This has happened a couple of times now. I go to start the jeep and it does start but it will stall. I start it again and it starts with a little hesitation and if I do not keep my foot on the gas pedel it will stall. Drive it for a couple of minutes, with one foot on the gas and if I have to stop one foot on the break, then starts to idel fine.

Thanks
Jim

Have you checked your fuel filter? You may not be getting enough fuel into your engine. Something may be clogging your line

. Change platinum spark plugs, if they have over 40,000 miles on them.
. Change fuel filter, as Adam_89 suggested.
. Check for vacuum leaks.
. Clean Idle Air Control Valve and throttle plate:

. Adjust idle rpm to spec.
. Test/replace the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor, if problem persists.
