My car has been stored all winter. I had stabil in 4 gallons of fuel. I took it out and filled it up. Drove it for a couple days, used 1/2 tank of fuel, and went to bed for the night. Next day, it was 50 degrees out. I backed out of the garage, sat for 25 seconds idle'ing, and took off. Let the clutch out, and eased onto the accelerator, and the car totally spudeded, farted, and would not go anywhere. I put the clutch in and zinged it a hair, it reved up clear. I then let the clutch out again, and again, same thing! I sat for another minute, and took off with no trouble at all.
Was it too cold??? not enough time to warm up?
What the heck happened??? HELP

I'll bet your fuel rail pressure sensor is going bad. That's exactly the symptoms mine had before my cobra died on me. It took the course of a couple months of the intermitant symptoms for it to do it long enough for me to figure out what was going on. Replaced the sensor and it runs great.
