Should the clutch be fully released when parking on a ramp during uphill?

[VanJustin]

When parking on a ramp during uphill, the clutch does not need to be fully released. You should release the clutch when climbing, but not completely. Clutch control: More power is needed when going uphill on a ramp compared to flat ground, so the clutch should be released slightly more than usual. Do not press the clutch too tightly, as this will cause the car to climb very slowly or even roll backward. Uphill precautions: The idea that releasing the clutch will cause the engine to stall is incorrect. Slowly releasing the clutch will not stall the car, whether on flat ground or when climbing. Stalling occurs not because of releasing the clutch but because the brake is pressed first without pressing the clutch. Generally, you should press the clutch first, fully depress it, and then press the brake to prevent stalling. What needs practice is how the left foot can quickly locate the clutch and fully depress it, while the right foot immediately presses the brake firmly. Achieving the fastest and most stable operation requires repeated practice.
