(19) Manual Transmission Hill Starts: Clutch Before Gas

- This is video not for driving tests where you are not allowed to rollback. Follow whatever method your instructor is teaching. This is related to this video except for flat ground,learn to get rid of dead space • (10) Manual Transmissi... .For hills, start off giving a lot of clutch engagement so you get used to understanding what is going on. Then you try 1/2 as much clutch, then try quick 1/4 clutch, but it will still be clutch then gas. The more time you practice this slowly the quicker you will understand it and you will spend less time in the long run doing poor clutch starts.
If your clutch engages quicker than what you see in the video then that is great let it engage quick, clutch out and go.
Understand when you watch videos there will be all sorts of variations between cars with new clutches and worn clutches(the engagement bite point is very different)but the sequence is always the same "clutch before gas".
Don't spend a lot of time thinking about what to do once you engage your clutch, when it grabs you need to move your foot to the gas fast but don't slam it down on the gas pedal.
Don't hold your car on the hill using the clutch...as in don't just sit on the hill waiting for the traffic to move or light to turn green with your clutch engaged, your clutch is not a handbrake. You are either stopped with full clutch in and brake or you are going, clutch up gas,hold, go.
Don't look at your gauges when doing hill starts. If you look at your rpm gauge you will end up not noticing your are rolling back. Look at the road and you will see even the slightest rollback movement. It is very dangerous and happens all the time!
What do you do in this situation which everyone faces when learning stick • 996 Porsche 911 Turbo ...
Crowd watching, cars behind you honking, people yelling things! Don't panic go to your safe space and breathe, clutch up, give gas , hold and go.
If someone tells you to move both feet at the same time like one goes up the other goes down. Your feet are not a seesaw, they are not connected and neither is your clutch and gas. They are doing distinctly different things and if you try to move both at the same time you always be on the edge of stalling the car.
If someone tells you to "just give gas and clutch up" ask yourself are they understanding your zero experience driving stick? Do they know you are young,old,maybe you are not that quick with your feet. Will giving gas and bringing up your clutch work for you on a steep hill as a complete new standard transmission driver? Watch if they are giving a ton of gas and bringing up their clutch because they are trying to do it quick. Will it work in tight traffic where you have to move up only 4 feet?

Hopefully by the time you put yourself in this situation like the porsche you will have practiced. At that point the only thing that will cause you trouble is panicking. If you start to freak out flip the rear view mirror up so you cant see traffic behind you and try again. It almost always helps.
I like to think I got pretty decent with hill starts but there are some hills where I stall no matter what. I wouldn't stall like that porsche did since that incline isn't even very steep. In Toronto we have some 15 degree inclines that go on for many kilometers.
If I stall anymore, it seems to happen to me when I am going at slow speeds on bumpy roads, or if I am on an uneven hill (again, steep incline, poorly paved road). A good spot is at spadina and davenport. Almost always I end up burning my clutch or stalling the car on that hill. Something about it just makes you roll back no matter what and I have gone up steeper hills than that when they were well paved.
Hi.. do i need to count while I releasing the clutch.. because every manual car has a different clutch adjustment.. please I need your reply
"Car will roll back and you'll crash n your dead " classic lol
he explained very dramatically :D :D :D
i thought was women
Coroner:"Yup... he rolled back, crashed and that was enough to take his life..."
HOLD IT, HOLD IT, HOLD IT !!!
DaKid Kray best fuckin line
This happened to me yesterday where I got in that cycle of stalling on the hill. I remember you words: "don't give more gas, give more clutch" and I made it up!
in the UK we all get taught to use the hand brake, give gas, find the biting point (high driving point), hold both feet still, do observations, release hand brake and move off. Works also for steep hills. For tight parking spaces we hold it at a lower biting point or the holding point instead and use the clutch to modulate the forward speed out of the spot. Your method works for some cars that has good torque, but I have driven some petrol cars and it was so easy to stall especially with steeper hills. If at a complete stop I almost always have the handbrake applied first but if creeping along a hill I hold it just below the biting point and "nudge" the car forward using gas and the appropriate about of clutch.
You just improved my driving by 200%! God bless you my brother.

You are a life saver, was shitting bricks about having to drive hills to work and was just gonna avoid hills but I told myself "no, if you want to be able to drive this car, you have to take hills and learn amd practice it". I was going off brake fast and going to gas and clutch and was having big problems with that method. Thanks!
as a learning manual driver, this is very helpful!
thank you
I rented a car in Italy and it's a manual. I got my license last August and this was my first time driving. I got stuck on the hills of Tuscany a few timrs 😂 and made a fool of myself. I reached my first stop and watch this video. Now I'll go back and do as you say, thanks!
I recently got a stick shift and was having trouble with up hills, this video helped out a lot!
Clutch before gas!!!!!!
how is your driving now ? :)
Most underrated hill start tutorial video for manual car!!!!!
I went out today for a quick practice before watching this. Last time I went this route I stalled once on the hill so it felt pretty good. This time I stalled it probably 7 times. Thankfully there was no one behind me. Really knocks your confidence.
I learned to drive a stick in Florida where there aren't any hills and have fallen out of practice with two automatics since then. Now living in an area where hills are common, and planning to buy a manual car soon, this is easily the best video on hill starts I have found so far. Thank you!
thanks very much!
I watched it again and again. Really appreciate the effort. Clear cut instructions . I feel this video should be named as " Demystifying the hill starts". I have really no words Once again , many thanks for the assistance .
Thanks for watching and your comments I appreciate them :)
This is a great video!
I'm in the UK and sick of instructor after instructor telling us you must give gas before getting the bite!
You have proved this is not necessary, thank you!
I've been driving manual for years to the point where it's second nature to me. I admit I have a few bad habits that I never cared to rectify, with the way I approach hills being one of them. Anyway, I was actually just on a random video spree but I think I'm going to re-learn this the right way tonight. Thanks.
As a beginner manual driver, your videos help out so much! I just binged almost 7 videos already at 2AM! 😭
Just floor the throttle and let the clutch out very quickly, let the tires do the clutching.
Thomas Henao 😂😂 right? I accidentally chirp my tires
James did you post then delete your post?
Drive Manual yes I did. I thought you were explaining it the wrong way. I misunderstood. what I do is clutch in, give it throttle (2000rpm) and ease the clutch out (I roll back a few inches but not bad) once it grabs, I let it roll about a foot of so them let it out all the way. smooth takeoff, minimal roll and no strain on the clutch
Exactly
Yes
thank you so much again. Didn't know why I had to stress myself out so much before over a hill start. I've literally been binge-watching your videos for a week now lol.
Your videos helped me tremendously when I first started a couple of years ago and even now. I had no one to teach me locally.
I just bought my first manual car and your vids are so helpful since it’s a old car it doesn’t have hill start assist and uphills starts we’re my biggest worry’s so I’ve been looking up a lot of vids about it but none have been as detailed as yours and a lot don’t even mention to use the clutch first but the gas instead and I tried that but my car would just roll down but thanks to your video I’ve been practicing more with the clutch first and its still hard but way easier so thank you
Fantastic presentation Drive Manual. This is one aspect that separates the rookies from the seasoned drivers. Young stick shifters keep this in mind, once you "master" this aspect, you'll be able spot a rookie stick shifter a mile away. You might even laugh or have empathy for as you recall your days when you were learning.
Just remember if you start to roll back don't panic. You be surprised that you didn't roll back as far as you thought - unless you backed into the car behind you. 😊
Again Drive Manual fine work. As a highly experienced stick shifter, I even learn a thing or two from your videos. Keep 'em coming.
the first time I got stuck there was a long ass line of cars behind me so I was like fuuck it and just dumped the clutch lol
Oh yeah yeah
One of the best video on hill top , just got a manual car , and I live in a hillside topography and there's always traffic jams on this hills . Cool technic
thank you for making these videos. your a great teacher.
thanks very much
Very beautifully explained from different camera angles and multiple demos. Thanks a lot from India.
The perfect channel for beginner drivers who wants to learn manual. I own an 8th gen civic so your videos have a personal touch on me. Very helpful!
Your Voice reminds me of Michael Jackson
Just wanted to say your videos have been a big help! Just started driving manual and already huge improvements thanks to your instructions.
if it was not for your videos i would not be driving a stick shift. it is only because of your videos that i was able to learn how to drive my 2001 honda civic dx thank you so much.
Damn, i used to struggle to use clutch and gas before, but after watchng this video, i told my mom that i wanted to drive and i had no problem and now i got controll on the clutch and gas!!
Thank you so much
that's awesome DreamzZxify so glad it could help!
I'm loving your your videos I'm learning a lot for my first time driving a manuel I have yet to try the hills .been to scared thought of practicing on my mom drive way since it's a hill .
thanks Belgica! just becareful if the house is in front because you dont want this to happen :) th-cam.com/video/u7U2MvFx5hQ/w-d-xo.html
Yeah no I won't do that smh that was scary looking I always check my gear before I Take off and I don't don't give it to much gas while holding the clutch meaning I take my time doing it to even it out so that I won't take off in full force like that car did
good that is the right way just take your time and take it easy on the gas and you learn a lot more and a lot faster that way anyways
I used to drive a stick in San Francisco and I totally agree with this method. I even used it on flat ground. It is sometimes sad to see people just rev the engine half way to the redline, pop the clutch in hope that the flywheel would get them going on a hill, then end up stalling
Great Tutorial, I am watching it daily and trying to practice. Keep up the good work.
THANK YOU!!! My instructors handbrake broke today and he cant get it fixed until after my test so ive been looking for ways to hill start without the handbrake (clutch control) This has solved my problem. Thanks!
good luck on your test!
Hi there. Thank you so very much for such insightful videos. I recently got my licence and I have to say that I learnt a whole lot from your videos than from my two instructors combined. Quick question on clutch balance on the a hill: As someone who practised on diesel cars, wouldn't a petrol car stall before I can get my foot on the accelerator using this sequence? I will be driving company cars (which are all petrol cars) soon, and I am worried because I know petrol cars have less torque and the engines cut out easier (and maybe sooner) than diesel. I love this sequence you are suggesting here and it has been working for me in congested junctions or slow traffic where you have to move sooner (making a use of handbrake impossible) and slowly.
Driven both petrol (Lancer) and diesel (Astra) cars in manual transmission. Petrol cars are definitely harder on a hill than diesels cars. With diesel, it's so much harder to stall. I could use the clutch only to start a diesel car on a hill in decent speed. With a petrol car, at least the Lancer, it's harder and a lot slower to start with just the clutch (if the hill is not steep enough for you to do this). But if you've driven a manual car for some time, you should be fine, just need to get the right foot on the accelerator, nothing hard about it.
The best tutorials on manual driving. Thank you !
Thanks very much for watching!
Thanks, very nice video. The latest honda models has Brake Hold, just activate it, it helps a lot, but be also ready to use brake just in case you forget to activate Brake Hold, both E Brake and Brake Hold can be both active, however it's nice not to defend on such latest features. Your channel is by far the best MT lesson in youtube, please continue the good work. Thank you.
For the people with a manual and have a car with "hill assist" ( holds the brake for an extra two seconds for you.) the manufacturer even says to not rely on it.. it will not engage depending on the steepness, and what you are doing to maneuver the vehicle can stop hill assist from helping.
Thank you these videos hepls me to pass in test exam of driving thank u best teacher i've never seen before teacher like U
Thank you so much for this video... Golden words... U have to be precise with clutch more than throttle in manual transmission... Very grateful and happy to understand..
This was my first lesson from my dad when he taught me how to drive, it brings back memories.
Your driving lessons are AWESOME! Thank you! I'm just learning driving now. :) Btw, I would like to ask how are placing a digital Speed and RPM gauges in your videos? Thanks!
wtf did he drive to a different season ? 😂
Z Mac she*
haha
And right past any hills that may have been in a video about hills.
Aaron the whole video from 2:19 to 6:30 was taken on a hill. Maybe get your eyes checked.
@@DriveManual Right... There's one hill (barely) at 5:50, which you stopped AFTER. This almost gives flat earth credence.
That was good on the clear explanation about clutching then gas when on a heel. Thanks.
Love all of your videos. Very detailed, super easy to follow. I know how to drive a manual, but I definitely learned quiet a lot from these videos.
This is what I do, had to learn it myself after realizing one day that i can engage the clutch while still pressing on the brakes... Somehow I had the thought that if I engage the clutch while my foot is on the brake, it would stall the car, and that led me to have a hard time at hills where I am releasing the brake first then letting the clutch slow at the same time pressing the gas a little, that would make me roll back more than I want to and sometimes if I know someone is very close behind me I'll panic and stall.
hey man i have to say i kinda underestimated you at first but now i can surely say i learnt more from you than anybody about cars.Idk how to ride a car and i have to start riding a manual one very soon.Watching your videos I already feel like i can drive it and you took a lot of fear from me already.Thanks alot man,ill update you if I manage to drive it,probably make a video to lol.Thank you ! :D

I'm from San Francisco, and, as you might have guessed, the grades are very steep. I drove up the hill and came to a red light. When it turned green, I kept stalling and a long queue of cars formed behind me. You mentioned using the handbrake in this type of situation, but I don't understand the sequence when trying to use it along with clutch and gas. Could you elaborate on this topic or possibly do a video about how to use handbrake from a steep hill?
Most detailed tutorial I ever watched in youtube. As a new driver, can I also use this method on a very steep hill e.g. dedicated parking in malls? or should I use handbrake method. the steeper the hill the more gas i have to apply correct? thanks a lot again and hope you were doing great!
Hi Kyle thanks very much ok in those kinds of spots you sometimes will have to use a the handbrake it just works better and sometimes in those underground parking for example people will come close to the back of your car and the hill is short but steep you can use your hand brake. You will have to make the decision but you can never go wrong with the handbrake. You do have to give more gas the steeper it gets so at that point you just want to switch over the handbrake because since you do have to hold your clutch for a second like in the video if you are having to give 3000+ rpm gas then it is just too steep and it is hard on your clutch. But for everything else, everyday driving average hills you can do like in the video. It is good to know how to use your clutch because in many cars the handbrakes are worn and sometimes don't even work so if you don't know how to use your feet you are in trouble. If you have never tried a handbrake start it is the exact same brake you will find on any bicycle :)
hi because some hills are even too steep for your clutch and you may have traffic that rides your bumper. you can use your clutch on any hill but some will be so steep the car rolls back immediately very fast and if it is in a parking situation like underground parking lot or maybe a drive through where cars are behind you best to use your handbrake. But you need to make the decision what is too steep when you need to use handbrake. But you are right technically use can just use your clutch but it will be hard on your clutch in those situations.
In my own experience, you could bring your clutch pedal up as far as it can go before stalling and you might still slip back before you give gas if you're on a very steep hill. However, in most cases you can keep the car from moving using only the clutch before you accelerate.
The key here is release the brake in tandem with clutch so that it does not stall and go much up (engaged) that way it gives enough power for very steep slope.
Excellent instruction for hills. Thank You. Helps so much
My driveway is very steep, like 45 degree angle and I always struggle to drive into the garage without having to get out of whatever gear I was in on the road to a complete stop facing the garage door up hill, then first gear drive up at like 10km/hr, which is too fast for my comfort but any slower and I can't make it up the slope without stalling or engine lugging or ride clutch at high rev.
The worst part is, if I ever stall out half way on the slope because I messed up (or tried chance it by driving up in 2nd gear coming off the road), I can NEVER hill start in position hoping to make the final stretch. I have to slide all the way back down to the curb, face the garage door then redo from flat ground (basically gain enough speed -10km/hr -to drive up the slope all the way in). While stopped on the slope if I lift off clutch to or close to bite point, as soon as my foot is off the brake the car will rollback, fast. If I give a little more clutch like you said in this video the car will gently stall, no shake. So I'm guessing the only option is to give more gas but by that point if a car is behind me I would've hit him 2 seconds ago.
I try to do it with handbrake, and you can tell me if I need to have my handbrake replaced because on my driveway unless the handbrake is pulled to the absolute last 3 notches on a 2011 Civic Coupe, the car will still rollback. So as you can imagine even doing it with handbrake if I don't get my clutch and gas perfect the car will roll as soon as I release handbrake even a tiny bit.
I can do your technique in the video on any hill that isn't as steep as my driveway where clutch at near biting point is able to stop car from rolling back enough for you to get off brake and tap gas a little and it'l move forward.
I tried this and it works! I'm a complete noob to driving stick (just bought my first manual car last week) and I can't thank you enough for this tutorial. I'm still a bit slow though and i have trouble with judging how much gas to give, but at least i didn't stall or roll back too far.
Quick question though, does a car with a smaller displacement engine need more gas when starting on a hill? I drive a Suzuki Swift 1.4L.
since you just bought the car and it is only week 2 try this th-cam.com/video/xcWEIJGehXU/w-d-xo.html
and see if it helps any or not, try with some small blips then large blips if you need more gas and if it doesn't work out then just keep doing what you are doing. It is so hard for me to tell you how your engine will react but my only advice is try a small incline almost flat ground and see how little gas you need then a little steeper incline and see how you can go up it with the least amount gas... you will notice you will have to give more gas the steeper it goes in whatever car you drive. In all of those small incline situations use the clutch before gas method like you did in this hill start video but you can do it like this (just go under the bite point...since you do not need to go to full bite point on small inclines th-cam.com/video/h9Fa1PLXuRk/w-d-xo.html . Anyway sorry can't be more help but glad this video helped you. Thanks very much for the comment!
Update: i practiced on a much steeper hill today for about 1 and a half hours just doing hill starts. Everything went smoothly! No stalls, no roll backs (maybe just a little). I no longer dread inclines and hills! Haha! 👍
awesome thank you for the update keep up the good work! :) Oh yeah learn how to use handbrake too because sometimes the hill will be so steep you may need to use handbrake. Keep me updated how it's going. Be safe. Thanks very much
Thanks for the video it explains everything I wanted to know! I don't really like the idea of using handbrake. It makes things too complicated :)
I'm learning a lot from watching your videos I been driving a manuel for two weeks .but I have yet to try a hill I been to scared to go on any hills but I am going to practice on my mom drive way since it's a hill
You need more gas depending on the size of the engine and type. In small petrol engines i.e 1 liltre your technique will cause stalling everytime.
That's a honda civic 1.8 liter in the video so yeah no ur wrong
Yes I got it, please teach me on hill starting and driving skills
I tried this in deep hill. I worked! thanks.
This is the way I learned to stop stalling after buying my first manual car a month ago with no experience in stick shifts. Lifting the clutch first keeps me from panicking if the car rolls back on a hill.
Very helpful video. Keep it up. I am learning a lot on your videos
1:53 "Your car will roll back and you will crash, and uh.... you are dead". Made me laugh.
Can you please make video on very steep hill with Hand brake method...
I can see you're driving a Honda Civic as I'm. My question is what type of engine do you have? If it's a 4 cylinder 5 speed, how many rmps are you getting let's say if you drive at 35 mph and what gear do you drive it on at 35mph???
hello use your rpm , do you have an rpm gauge? experiment with 2900-3400 rpm. It will probaly put you in 4th if you shift at 3000rpm in 3rd at 35mph reply back let me know.
Great Video ...pls upload more and break down the process of manual ...I have couple of questions -
1) Once The Bite Point is engaged , You apply Gas ..after that for how long do we need to hold/keep the clutch still before letting go of the clutch? I have lot of jerks...Also once in motion ...do I need to keep on giving gas in a constant manner. ..I guess yes o'wise it will stall.
2) Another thing how do you identify the bite point? Pls explain couple of different ways. When I saw your video, I saw the car vibrate/shake a bit so I understood you were at bite point. But At times, When I leave clutch My car is damn silent( They say ur engine tone is low when @ bite point) and when I give gas and hold clutch..Boom it stalls...So need couple of diff ways to identify bite point. Thanks again
hello if you do this th-cam.com/video/bTGP5t54x0s/w-d-xo.html over and over your foot will get used to where the bite point is. by the time you go to hills your foot should automatically know where the bite point is or you will have trouble. The whole point of that video is to build the muscle memory so you don't have to think about it. Use your ankle (if you can)like explained in the other videos to flick your foot to the bite point vs using your whole leg. If you have trouble identifying the bite point try doing the same thing in reverse gear and see if the feeling is stronger. Before doing any hill starts you should understand flat ground starts like in these 2 videos. It explains how long you need to hold the clutch
th-cam.com/video/90M8NMh4AsI/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/h9Fa1PLXuRk/w-d-xo.html
Very nice video! What is the proper way of operating the clutch? With heel planted on the floor or using the whole leg? Since the clutch pedal in my car (Splash) rests a bit high unlike other cars I am not able to put my heel on the floor and pivot. When I searched on the net I found most people use their whole leg (without heel touching the floor) to operate the clutch. Could you please advise? Thanks a lot in advance!
So the car does roll back even if the clutch is fully engaged? Got it. It’s about practicing that bite point then giving it gas. As long as I feel that bite point the car won’t roll back? Sorry this is the biggest fear of mine. This and parallel parking in right spots with a manual
Just a tip for learners i think you still need to use your handbrake on a hill during your test
Some people says it's bad for the car to engage the clutch while using the foot brake. What do you make of this?
Thanks a lot for the video andfor the enormous information conveyed. Why didnt you touch the technique of using parking brake on hill starts? Honestly speaking , I dont like the e-brake method. I remember there was an era when there was no e-brakes .
hello I noticed 99% of the hill start videos were using handbrake so I didn't think there was need to make another one also because there is only one way to use a handbrake no way to really screw it up, i didn't feel I could add anything. Everyone should know how to use a handbrake it is easy and sometimes you need to use it on very steep hills. I will make a video of how a handbrake works maybe
I prefer to learn conventional method first and then the e- brake method. As you mentioned . the arc or time taken to move the feet from brake to accelrator and finding the correct biting point is the main skill in hillstarts. e- brake method is safe but cumbersome to use in traffic.Thank you for the reply.
Thanks a lot your video is really helpful and you are simply the best.
When you say "more clutch" do you mean lift the pedal more or lower it?
very helpful videos thank you. can you show a live uphill bumber to bumber traffic.
Mam if we drive like this ...clutch plates will spoil ? Give reply mam
Great video, thank you for the help!
yes, I did post and delete. I misunderstood you and was about to say you are doing it wrong but then I realized I misunderstood you haha. what I do is clutch in, place in first gear (because no one likes to sit in gear w/clutch in) and give it throttle... about 2K and ease the clutch out to the biting point somewhat quick, brief stall until it rolls then ease it all the way out. I may roll like a few inches but that's it
My manual car has a feature called Hill start assist. Im fairly new to driving a manual. Would I have to do the same thing in the video as well?
Hey man! Love yer videos. (Dumb) question: how do ya record them car dials? Thanks man!
@@DriveManual Thank you! Again: love your videos! Very useful, very good teacher!
hello there, I'm from Egypt, and ur videos helped me alot, I watched them again and again, I appreciate ur efforts,
and I need a video to illustrate how to deal with intersections and bumps while I'm on third or 4th gear
or if there any video kindly share the link
Thank you very much for posting. The weather is not great here so I havent had chance to make more videos. For intersections say and example making left hand turn , when you are learning I would stay close to the line so if you stall then you do not get stuck in middle of intersection then as you get more confident with your clutch and gas you can go further out into intersection. when you are first learning you should not shift in the intersection because if you make mistake shifting ("miss shift") then you will also get stuck in intersection so try to shift when you are almost all the way through. But if you are comfortable shifting then just do as normal. Can you explain a little more about bumps
Speaking of winter and snow storm, would you do a video on handling manual car in winter condition. Winter. is here
So when i have my clutch at the bitepoint can i still press down the breal or do i have to let go of the break right when i start to release the clutch?
hi please watch my latest video I posted today. Also you can keep your foot on break but remember you don;t want to keep it there too long. once you go to bite point you want to start doing whatever it is you are going to do and if the start doesn't work stop clutch in and try again
your videos are tremendously helpful! keep it up, also stay safe. the roads in your videos towards the end look scary.
Thank you very much, yes the roads can get exciting lol
i drive a 98 ford escort, im in dire need of motor mounts, my car shakes more than it honestly should when i release the clutch especially on a hill, for some reason my clutch almost feels like it just doesn't catch on a hill, and when im actually there at the bite point the car just shakes and doesn't hold it. im going to continue to practice with that roll back maneuver u were doing on a hill.
it's ok if it shakes or jerks it's going to happen as long as you can engage your clutch and go then you are ok. If it doesn't bite and hold it may be worn out is the bite point very high on the pedal , usually if it is high it means it is worn but that doesn't mean it is finished. The point is not to hold the car but get used to clutching up until the bite point and then going for your gas this gets rid of all the dead space where the clutch is not doing anything.
this is similar except on flat ground th-cam.com/video/h9Fa1PLXuRk/w-d-xo.html
thank u so much, your very informative. it does catch very high, its a 98 with 223.000 miles on it. og clutch
It's a lot of miles but as long as it still gets you where you need to go then it is good :) You can recognize when it slips because the engine will rev up as you give gas but the car will not accelerate. If you don't have an RPM gauge and you are new to stick you may not be able to recognize that. Here is 2 videos if you watch the tachometer on this one you can see it rev up but the speedo doesn't really move
th-cam.com/video/qALD15dqXGM/w-d-xo.html

yea i do not have a tach, im going to watch that video. thank u so much
With light/deep snow driving, what is the preferred gear to be in from starts from a stop?
Thank you so much for your detailed response! I live in New York and have to frequently deal with bad winters. Mentioning that I'm coming from an A/T, kind of backwards learning, haha. Probably will judge the speed and gear while I'm in my automatic car driving in snow to best find out!
Beautiful done. Thanks for this.
Thanks so much man, finally mastered this today.

The real question is how tf did you end up in snow
Where the hell did the snow come from lol
Bro please help im having trouble trying to park at store parking lot i must hold the bite point and barely give gas right i keep staling when i try to park but can easily take off and go through the gears i think im letting the clutch to fast when i try to park because dont want to burn it please help with some parking tips.thanks
I have moved a car in a very steep hill with just the clutch, all about technique. Higher the clutch faster the car will move, but if it is a petrol you would need the e brake.
Tony Ademi you don’t need a handbrake with gas cars lol. There’s no difference in your clutch whether you’re diesel, gas, alcohol, etc.
If the car doesn't move what do you mean u need to give it more clutch? Explain you release the clutch a little mor or apply more clutch
Ameil I just assume at this point the person has spent lots of time learning about their clutch and doing flat ground starts at least 2 hours before they start to do hills so when I say more clutch they would know we want to move not sit still, I guess I should have used the word release you are right. You can practice this on flat ground th-cam.com/video/h9Fa1PLXuRk/w-d-xo.html
Thank you Sir, such a nice explanation. It is useful.
does it apply to a low powered car? like 800cc?
This video is gold
So for this I don’t need my e-brake like most people use. I can stop on the hill hold the break bring the clutch to bite point let off break then gas??
if it is really steep you will have to try your handbrake
Does this works in dieswl engines? Btw you helped me. Thanks mate!
Hi I don't have experience with diesel so i'm not sure. Thank you for watching.
Especially with a damn Ford 7.3 Diesel. Those things are fun to drive!
Thank you, this video helps me a lot!!!!
You’re an angel.
could this be bad for the clutch?
so this is the best method for starting on hills?
Can we do blip throttle starts on uphill start?
