Subject:transmission problem?

Hi all,

I'm currently have a 'situation' with my 87 Wolfsburg.  I'll be driving and
come to a full stop or even a rolling stop.  When I step on the accelerator,
the van doesn't move forward instantly.  It feels like it's not engaged,
then suddenly it engages, the van lurches forward as i'm stepping on the gas
and I'm off going again.  The strange thing is it doesn't happen all the
time when I've stopped at a stop sign or signal (full stop or rolling stop).
Any ideas as to the cause?  Is this a transmission problem?

Thanks,
Durby
