What happens when you press the accelerator and clutch together?
1 Answers
The consequences of pressing both the clutch and accelerator simultaneously are as follows: 1. It can easily damage the clutch release bearing. 2. The engine noise increases. 3. Fuel consumption rises. Below are the correct ways to coordinate the clutch and accelerator: 1. Starting: Press the clutch with your left foot, press the brake with your right foot, shift into first gear, release the handbrake, then slowly lift the clutch with your left foot. When the car begins to vibrate slightly, move your right foot to the accelerator pedal and gently apply some throttle while continuing to release the clutch. The car will start smoothly. Once the clutch is fully released with your left foot, apply more throttle to prepare for shifting. 2. Upshifting: Release the accelerator pedal, quickly press the clutch pedal with your left foot, shift the gear lever to the appropriate gear, and release the clutch pedal while slowly pressing the accelerator with your right foot. 3. Downshifting: First, press the brake to reduce speed, lightly tap the accelerator with your right foot, then quickly press the clutch pedal with your left foot, shift the gear lever to the appropriate gear, and release the clutch pedal while slowly pressing the accelerator with your right foot.
