Re: Cold Start

[Colin Peterson <norton850@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So far my ST's behaved itself impeccably in this regard, though it did go
through a phase of stalling between downshifts, which was annoying at best,
really dangerous at worst... Not weather related, I don't think anyway, and
thankfully it seems to have got over it by itself.
