When I taught my wife, she was so paranoid about stalling at a stop light or sign, and making the people behind bet mad. I just told her, if they are impatient, that means they don't recognize the car is a manual, and probably can't drive it themselves so screw them and take your time.

I taught her 16 years ago now in a 2005 toyota corolla. It took time, but she eventually rocked it. As someone who has been driving manual probably as long as you have been alive, it does me good to go back and understand the basics when you teach someone. It becomes so second nature, you just forget about rev matching and your point of friction and all that, and just do it.

The simple trick that I was taught was that when you hear the engine juddering and feel you're about to stall, dip the clutch all the way in, set more revs and slowly bring the clutch up again. I don't use it now but it was very useful in my first few lessons.

Could even be that your shoes are wet from rain and you accidentally slip off the clutch too fast or some other bullshit. But you will stall eventually. It's just gunna happen when you have a million miles of road experience.

Biggest tip Find the sweet spot and lead with the clutch, once you find the sweet spot the car won’t stall but be able to move forward by itself from here you hit the gas slowly while at the same time releasing the clutch; for people who learned to drive autos first like me and are right handed and footed, really really think about using the clutch; the gas /right foot movement is already implanted in your muscle memory but you have to concentrate to Learn to use your left foot and think about it hard, e.g. lifting weights and thinking about the muscle you’re training (hence lead with the clutch) this helped me a lotttt when I learned

The most important tips that worked for me were: - dont get too worked up about stalling the car, it creates a self fulfilling prophecy. - too much gas/rpm when starting is still better than not enough. Since the former just might create sick burnouts and wear the cluth while the latter just stalls the motor. - Get comfortable with letting it roll in idle, so you get the idea that if youre letting go of the clutch carefully enough it wont stall.

@BrosFOURRSpeed

9 ай бұрын

Yeah great points!

In my own experience, the secret to never stalling can be summarised by the following idea: You're only gonna stall when you're taking off, so when you're taking off make sure to give the car a decent amount of petrol as you release the clutch. That prevents the car from stalling even if you release the clutch a little faster than normal. You can obviously hear, so don't give it too much petrol that it's loud but don't try to force yourself to take off with no petrol every time. There is no point. As a new driver, if you give it some fuel each time you take off, even on flat roads, that helps a lot in getting used to the control point and the whole process of taking off and eventually, you will be able to do with no petrol if you want to. So again in summary, the secret to never stalling is giving your car enough petrol while you're taking off, even if you're on a flat road. That way when you release the clutch you will not stall and although some takeoffs can be jerky in the beginning, you get used to releasing the clutch slow enough that every takeoff is smooth.

@Jake DV You see, over here in the USA over the last few generations we have gone through a pretty dramatic shift in: Technology, Schooling, how parents raise their children(almost nonexistent discipline/parenting, concluding in disrespectful spoiled shits that lack even basic life skills)... And what I consider 2nd worst if not 1st, is what seems to be the lowest work ethic amongst my countries younger generations in my nation's history! And there's more, but these are the bigger issues in my opinion.. And I had to say all of that just to be able to now explain why I think manual transmissions are harder to find than an automatic in the US. Because of the aforementioned shifts, younger generations are WAY LESS likely to even attempt to learn to drive a manual(I would even bet that the majority have never even been in a car with a manual transmission!), due to the rising problem of, "it's too much work and effort to learn that".. Even though, unless you're driving a manual that's like 20+yrs old, most newer Manual cars advanced to where you almost have to try to stall the engine... So that I don't end up writing a novel instead of a comment, I'll conclude with: The reason manual transmissions are becoming rare is because people are becoming more and more lazy and technologically dependent, in this age of "instant gratification".

I started with a 60 year old tractor that is really forgiving when you dump the clutch in 1st or 2nd gear, but in forth gear you have to slip the clutch a lot. The only reason I do that is because the transmission in the tractor in not secronized meaning if you tried to shift gears while moving you will just grind the gears.

The proper way to do hill starts is with the handbrake. It means you don't roll back at all, which means you put less wear on the clutch and are less likely to stall. In the UK (where 80% or more of all cars sold are manual) the majority of people are taught to do hill starts this way. Using your handbrake instead of the footbrake gives you more control over the car because you don't need to do the quick switch from holding the brake pedal to pressing the accelerator, so it's better practice in general.

@STho205

Жыл бұрын

Or you can use skill and coordination. I live in mountains that dwarf anything in the UK, especially England...yet I don't drop back on a steep hill stop. I did when i was 15...but resolved that before taking the final practical....as that was part of the test. I live on a steep gravel private road too...no worries. Every nation has their quirks of driving. In the US, using the handbrake is a sign of inexperience....probably because in the 30s to 70s the parking brake was an extra floor pedal or a pull out lever like an airplane brake. My first "handbrake" was my early 1974 MGB...but i only used the handbrake for parking. When in Rome.

This video is awesome! I havent touched a manual in 12 years but recently just picked up an 88 Suzuki Samurai with a 5 speed. This really helped refresh me. Also to those who havent driven a manual before or are just learning, practice makes perfect and just make sure you stay safe. To keep people off your butt, you can buy a learning stick bumper magnet and people should stay back quite a bit.

Usually when cars are tested for 0-100 times they rev the cars up untill the redline and they just bash the gas until it goes into redline (depending on the car you dont want to be doing that), but using some driving techniques you can shave off quite a bit of time while accelerating.The main thing about hard from-stop acceleration you need to be careful not to put too much power down the rubber because youll lose traction and that will effect your acceleration quite a bit. Depending on the car (im taking my godawfully slow grande punto as an example ((63kw))) you will want to hold the clutch in while in first gear, rev the engine up to about 3500-4500 rpm (in ths case its the sweet spot for torque and horsepower where they are both peaking), then you dump the clutch but dont floor it use about 70-90% of the gas (depending on the car) and as you start hitting the redline or preforabely 300-400 rpm below it, hit the clutch WITHOUT letting go of the gas, this will cause your car to jerk a bit when you change gear and release the clutch and might cause some wheel spin, but have in mind that by not letting go of the gas you will wear your clutch out very, very fast so do this as little as possible. this method applies to slower and less powerfull cars very well, but as soon as you go above a certain horsepower car this may slow you down because no matter the gear if the engine is powerful enough, you will spin the wheels even in 3rd and above gear,also beware of rear wheel drive cars if you are doing this. In the end if you dont want (and really shouldnt) to do that inter-gear gas bashing you should look up your cars dyno chart and find where the torque curve starts to drop in higher rpms and shift around those indicated rpms, again depending on the car shift some time before or after the indicated rpms. Hope i helped and goodluck. I am by no means an expert but i know a few stuff here and there and I consider myself a "car guy"

Just remembered its called flat-foot shifting and as i said its very harmful and avoid it as much as possible. Some say its useless some dont. I say it does help, but your clutch really takes a beating. Ive had some good results with it, but it hurts me to do it so i also avoid it as much as possible.

Sweet! Manual cars a ton of fun!

Simple tutorial: Only the 1st gear is a "must" to let go slowly the clutch, others can let go faster. When you are on neutral you can't stall even if you are leting go off the clutch. When you go on turn on road you give signal, put on neutral/2nd gear and then turn. Don't let the car stop without holding the clutch, or it must be on neutral. When the sounds of the car gets pretty high, thats when you upshift, put wgen you slow down too much you gold brake, and give a little gas to downshift. Be sure to use blinkers for every turn or any action you are taking to make sure other drivers will understand. *Please feel free to ask me anything!* I will add more later.

Its so much easier to just rev your car at 1500-2500 rpms and maintaining it and just let of the clutch slowly the more you do it the faster you get at it and you'll never stall agian.
