Hi there

Lately I have been having a strange problem. If I start my stang after its been sitting for a while, every once and a while when taking off from a stop in first gear the car will start bucking like crazy and I have to give it gas to stop this from happening.
However once its warm , if I turn it off and then back on(reboot) it seems fine.

Is this a known problem?

I've noticed the bucking myself and put it down as getting used to a manual shift again. Others previously have posted similar problems - not sure if there is a cause/solution posted.
What I've been doing myself is not releasing the clutch quickly - after putting into gear I pause/take a breath then release clutch - don't notice the bucking when I do it this way. I know this probably sounds strange to most of you but it seems to work for me.
