I have a 2001 xj 4.0 that I just recently rebuilt the engine. If I start it after it setting over night it will fire right up, AND it will idle. But once it has ran for approximately 3-4 minutes it will not idle without depressing the gas pedal slightly . I have not yet let it sit at an idle for a long period of time. I broke in the rebuilt motor as needed. And if it dies it won't start unless it has completely cooled down. This is similar to the problem I was having with it before i rebuilt the motor except before it would start hot or cold but still wouldn't idle after warming up. I've replaced almost almost all sensors, tps, crankshaft position sensor, coolant temp sensor, oil sending unit, map sensor, idle air control two times, it has brand new optima red top battery and a brand new alternator. It will pop and sputter when cranking on it and will start maybe sometimes after it has warmed up. The only thing I changed in in the motor was the camshaft, I bought an Elgin RV cam from Titan engines and it runs just fine when I start from a cold start. I'm stumped. I've spent hours researching.
