So new issue. when in reverse (ax15) whether the clutch is in or not if given gas the jeep sputters like its going to stall. and every now and then when stated it will do the same if given gas in any gear or neutral. but after its warmed up or idled for a moment it only sputters in reverse. kinda lost on this one so any rabbit holes to explore would be nice
