Default 1995 cherokee sport 4.0 engine problems?????

Ok, I have a 96 sport 4.0 with 180000 miles on it. It runs great until it starts warming up outside. When I drive for awhile and then stop and run into a store or whatever and go to start it up it runs funny. How to describe it, almost like its missing. Then after you get going for a few minutes its ok. I had a 2000 Sport with only 50000 miles on it a few years ago that did the same thing. (God rest his crunched up shell, hit by a drunk driver a destroyed him). Anyway if anyone out here knows something that I should try, please let me know. The plugs, air cleaner, etc have all been done. Thanks for any and all answers.
