1 Answers
The reasons for engine stall in Subject 2 driving test are: 1. Handbrake: Forgetting to release the handbrake or not releasing it completely when starting the car can cause the engine to stall due to dragging brakes; 2. Clutch: The clutch should be fully depressed. Forcing the gear shift without fully depressing the clutch can produce gear grinding sounds from the engine and may damage the transmission. The method to prevent stalling is: When starting on a slope, slowly release the clutch pedal with your left foot until the vehicle begins to vibrate. Hold this position slightly to confirm if the vehicle has the tendency and power to move forward. Do not continue to lift the clutch pedal to avoid stalling. When the vehicle starts moving forward, then fully release the handbrake with your right hand and gradually apply throttle.
