    Spiting out the Exhaust?

    I have a 97 with the 4.0 and when u are cruising at highway speeds and let off the gas to slow down it wants to spit ( best explanation ) out the tailpipe pretty loud. Doesn't do it everytime just intermittingly. I just need some ideas to get started diagnosing it. It is driving me crazy!!!!
