When I first start up my car it will buck and choke while I am driving. When she heats up, she runs just fine.

It is kind of frustrating, but I can live with is for a while!

Do a search on the ECT sensor, test your current one or if $15 isnt an issue, try replacing it (if it aint it, return it!).
