Will the car stall when braking suddenly?
1 Answers
Generally, the vehicle will stall only when the brake is pressed suddenly and not released, because at this time, as the car decelerates, the clutch is engaged, and the engine speed drops sharply, falling below the idle speed, causing the vehicle to stall. Manual transmission cars will not stall when braking. Precautions: 1. Manual transmission cars should strive for a smooth start: When starting, the clutch and throttle should be well controlled. Lift the clutch halfway (when you vaguely feel the vehicle shaking), then lightly press the throttle. At this time, simultaneously release the handbrake or brake, slowly lift the clutch, and the vehicle will start slowly. After driving for a while, shift to second gear, also quickly pressing and slowly lifting the clutch. 2. If the car frequently stalls when starting on a slope: It means the clutch is still not controlled well, being lifted too quickly. The trick is to control the clutch and throttle well, keeping the clutch steady at a position just before halfway, then releasing the handbrake and brake, lightly pressing the throttle, and slowly releasing the clutch. The slope requires a very precise position for lifting the clutch; lifting it too quickly can easily cause the car to stall. 3. Manual transmission cars should shift gears in time according to the vehicle's speed during driving: Generally speaking, 2000 to 2500 rpm is a good time to shift gears. Excessively high rpm will increase fuel consumption. Over time, you can also listen to the engine's sound to shift gears. In addition, shifting gears according to the speed is also good. Generally, 30 mph is good for 3rd gear, 40-50 mph for 4th gear, and 50-60 mph for 5th gear.
