I should have not used that word "Pop". Yeah I have pushed started before and I know the crazy surge you are talking about. I will try to do it a little smoother today. Yeah it must have been the cat then that I heard of. But hey I just got a brand new cat a month ago..under warranty. Yea I like the ideal of the engine not burning any gas but are the gains with engine off say on a mile strip marginaly better. Say my RPMs in idile turn 900 vs 0. I just think this could cause some serious crashes. But hey what do I know. I know we don't reccommed doing this, just curious how it should be done properly and some input.

Thanks all
