How to Avoid Stalling on a Hill Start?
1 Answers
Methods to avoid stalling on a hill start: Before starting, first ensure that the clutch and brake are fully depressed. Then slowly release the clutch. When the vehicle begins to shake noticeably, keep the left foot steady on the clutch pedal without moving, and gradually release the brake with the right foot. Once the vehicle starts moving, completely release the brake. Another method involves using the handbrake. When parking on a slope, engage the handbrake. During startup, release the handbrake with the right hand, gently lift the clutch with the left foot, and slightly press the accelerator with the right foot. Then gently lift the clutch again with the left foot until reaching the semi-engaged state. Keep the clutch steady, add a bit more throttle, and immediately release the handbrake. The driver should maintain a calm mindset and avoid panic.
