Will the engine stall if the car is in neutral without pressing the clutch?
1 Answers
Shifting to neutral without pressing the clutch will not cause the engine to stall. This is because when the car is in neutral coasting, the connection between the engine and the drive wheels is lost, and the transmission is completely disengaged from the drive wheels. In this state, not pressing the clutch will not stall the engine. Below are detailed explanations of neutral gear and the clutch: Neutral Gear: Neutral gear typically refers to the state where the vehicle's gearshift lever is not engaged in any forward or reverse gear, and the transmission is completely separated from the drive wheels. In manual transmissions, neutral is in the middle position, while in automatic transmissions, it is indicated by the 'N' symbol. Clutch: The clutch in a vehicle is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission.
