Default Cold Start Problems...

I park my car for the winter and occasionally start it, like it says in the manual. Buttttt, I have to hold the clutch down an extra 10 seconds (at start up) or so, otherwise the car will stall! Any ideas what this could be? I DO have a TODA flywheel....maybe there isnt enough spinning inertia (enursha? Cant spell...lol) when its cold to keep the engine running? I have no clue....just a thought.

Anyone have any ideas on what this maybe? Its fine after that initial start.

This would be the viscous oil in the transmission creating drag on the engine.

Does driving it around get rid of this viscosity?.....Do i have to get a transmission flush along with new oil when i take it out of storage?

Thanks in advance
