OK. I thnk I've gotten the hill thing. I was out at lunch driving around. I found that just letting the clutch go until I feel it grab works(like you guys said).

As for regular shifting, I think I found a trick. I think I shift too slow. Tell me what you think. Prior to my trip at lunch I would wait for the RPMs to drop then shift. Well I found at lunch that If I shift quick while the RPMs are higher that I get into gear with no jerking. Sound like this is what I ought to be doing?

Also first gear is still shaky for me. I never seem to get a smooth take off. Any ideas on that one?

Thanks for the input thus far.......
