I'll try to make this short so you guys wouldn't have to spend the next few days reading....

Went over to my moms for dinner on Saturday. Exited the freeway (right turn off ramp), stopped at the light (on a hill). As I was about to turn left, I accidentally stalled, no problem there. I started the car back up and made the left turn. All of a sudden, my car starts to sputter in first gear. it would just jerk around in first gear like it was about to stall. I pulled over, turned my car off, and turned it back on. It started to drive like normal again and it never came back since. I had a full tank of gas at the time so I doubt it was caused by fuel starvation.

I'm not too worried about it now since I drove another 100 miles after that without any issues. I was just wondering why that would happen or if anyone had similar issues before.
