Will the car move when in 2nd gear without pressing the accelerator?
1 Answers
Car can move in 2nd gear without pressing the accelerator. It's okay to do it occasionally, but long-term practice will damage the car. Extended information: 1. The harm of starting in 2nd gear: Since the gear ratio of 2nd gear is close to 1st gear, the wear is relatively not too severe. The higher the gear used for starting, the greater the wear on the clutch. Additionally, starting in 2nd gear puts more load on the engine, and the gasoline cannot be fully burned, which can easily lead to carbon deposits and cause damage to the engine. 2. Composition of manual transmission: Manual transmission consists of gears and shafts, generating variable speed and torque through different gear combinations. Different gears output different power and speed ratios. The lower the gear, the greater the output power and the higher the speed ratio. Therefore, in 1st gear, the car has the greatest power and can start a stationary vehicle. The higher the gear, the smaller the power output of the car.
