What Causes a Manual Transmission Car to Stall While Reversing?

[DeEthan]

Here are the reasons why a manual transmission car stalls while reversing: Stalling during start-up: Stalling during start-up occurs because the clutch pedal is released too quickly, failing to pause at the "half-engaged" position, coupled with insufficient throttle input, leading to a stall. Alternatively, the driver might miss the point where the clutch should "pause." Keeping the left foot on the clutch pedal after starting: This happens because beginners misunderstand the role of the clutch pedal. Many new drivers believe that as long as they keep their left foot on the clutch pedal, the car won't stall. In reality, this is a misconception that only increases clutch wear and reflects the driver's lack of experience.
