Heh- brings back good memories. I "learned" to drive a stick after my dad gave me his '89 900 in upstate NY the day I moved to Cleveland. Learned on the good ol NY thruway. Not advisable, although highway driving lots easier than hilly city. Stayed with the manual tranny until just this year, a final admission that I drive in gridlock city.
Do take the advice of practicing the balance between transmission engaging and clutch. If you ease up on the clutch realllllllllly slowly (and give no gas) that point should become obvious.
