Should the Clutch Be Fully Released When Starting on a Slope?

When starting on a slope, the clutch should not be fully released. Slowly release the clutch to the semi-engagement point until the car starts to vibrate, then release a bit more until the car begins to move forward, indicating that semi-engagement is achieved. However, when going uphill, since more power is needed compared to on flat ground, the clutch should be released slightly more than on flat ground, but not fully. The clutch is located within the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission, with the clutch assembly fixed to the rear plane of the flywheel by screws. The output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. During driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily separate or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the power from the engine to the transmission.
