Why Does the Engine Sound Louder When Starting on a Slope?
1 Answers
When going uphill, the speed decreases and the traction force increases. When the traction force exceeds what the engine can handle, noise is generated inside the engine. Therefore, it is normal for the engine sound to become louder when starting on a slope. Starting on a slope requires slow acceleration: 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 whether the vehicle has the tendency and power to move forward. Do not continue to lift the clutch pedal to prevent stalling. Starting on a slope requires gradual throttle application: Only when the vehicle starts to move forward should the right hand fully release the handbrake and gradually apply throttle. If no throttle is applied when starting on a slope, the engine may stall due to insufficient idle speed, which cannot drive the vehicle up the slope.
