CHeck for a vacuum leak. When I bought my 2001 GC w/4.0l it was doing that same thing. Turned out i had dry rotted vacuum line connections on the side of the intake manifold at the base of the throttle body. If i remember correctly, one was a 1/4" hose 90 deg hose and the other was 1/2 or 5/8" hose.. I replaced both of them on my 4.0l and its been running fine ever since.
