Quick no pressure question!!

Ok...two...

1. Had the car a year. Bought it with a tank of stale gas and running rough. new gas is in, ran some injector cleaner through it and re-attached two unattached air lines. Running great. Problem 1 (not a big deal) = on a cold start it now starts like my old carbed '67 Pontiac. Wants to turn for 5-6 seconds of nothing. Turn it off. On again and it starts up immediately. This started happening as soon as I found the air line off the bottom of the turbo and re-attached it. Of course, turbo now fine! Ideas?

2. In drive (not OD), there is the faintest (really faint - one of those things you notice and then you focus on - others in the car have said "huh") "pulsing" of the drive train. Like a very faint "skip" - usually off throttle. On throttle and in OD and zip. It really is running great and this doesn't even amount to an annoyance but I figure I'd ask if it's recognizeable to anyone.
