Why does the engine stall when the clutch is released too quickly?
1 Answers
Because releasing too quickly causes the torque to not keep up, here is a detailed explanation of the reasons for stalling when the clutch is released: 1. Starting a car requires a large amount of torque, and the faster the start, the greater the torque needed. Quickly releasing the clutch without giving enough throttle means the engine output cannot provide sufficient torque. When the clutch pressure plate engages but the torque doesn't keep up, the car cannot move, naturally causing the engine to stall. 2. When the driver slowly releases the clutch, the car starts more slowly, requiring less torque, making it less likely to stall. In some cases, the car can even start moving without pressing the throttle.
