are you losing any coolant? Do you drive short distances where the engine never fully heats up? creamy oil suggests water in the oil - could be condensation (not enough driving to boil off?) or could be a head gasket allowing coolant into the oil.

Hesitation could be several things - plugs/coils/mixture issues. What year and how many miles?
