Here is the correct way to use the clutch, if it is a friend of the automatic transmission, this article can be skipped, so it is convenient to open the automatic car, especially the environment of the city traffic jam, blocking off, will let you step on the clutch step on the doubt of life.

Without further ado, who wanted us to buy a stick shift?

Now that want to use to clutch, we're going to have a certain knowledge of working principle of the clutch, clutch between the engine and transmission, it is depend on friction to transmits the engine power to the transmission, at the same time use the clutch pedal is effective points to clutch and engine connection, there is no friction after separation, also can cut off the engine power output.

So how to use the clutch correctly?

First of all, we should have the right posture, the sole of the left foot should step on the clutch, the heel should be attached to the plate, the heel can not be suspended, and the seat before and after adjustment, to adjust to the death of the clutch, the foot is slightly bent.

This will prevent the clutch from being stuck to the bottom or the clutch from being semi-clutched for a long time.

Is closely combined with the engine in the process of driving, clutch, clutch should not slip, in addition to auto start, shift and low speed brakes need to be on the clutch pedal, other time all don't need to be fine on clutch, or someone has a bad good habit put the foot on the clutch pedal, driving his feet long on the clutch pedal, driving after a long time will cause the clutch skid, clutch plate ablation phenomenon, serious will cause the clutch pressure plate, the flywheel end surface ablation injury, resulting in failure of clutch slippage, etc.

Let's talk about how to operate the clutch at the start. When we learned in the driving school, the instructor always said that the clutch should be a fast, two slow and three linkage.

What is a fast, is when you began to lift the clutch should be quickly carried clutch, the clutch carried to the half and half linkage that point is feeling the car a little vibration, and the distance from a linkage to completely lift the clutch need to loose the clutch slowly, like our family car idle speed ratio of driving the car is low, the average family car idle speed is controlled in 800, while driving tend to idle speed on the high side, around 1200 or so commonly, driving car in the process of slow up the clutch, the car can drive slowly, and at the time of the slow up the clutch family car need to fill some oil, not easy to remove from heat, after so many novice in driving school learning, to open oneself buy a car,

It is often easy to stall at the start.

In the midway driving, we will encounter shift, when we add 2 or 3 file should quickly on the clutch pedal and speak to lift, don't use half United States, if you use a half linkage, will accelerate clutch plate wear and tear, and the more than 4 gears can be fast on fast lift, so don't feel frustration feeling, and shift down, step on the clutch, the need to fill a foot oil, increase the speed, just the speed match well with low speed gear, so down also won't let a person feel sense of frustration.

Of course, we can not like some old drivers can not step on the clutch to shift gears, the novice or honestly step on the clutch to shift gears.

In corners or need to stop, we should first knock down the speed of the car brakes, then step on the clutch on the gear on the right gear, cannot to pedal the brake and clutch at the same time, so although the engine power separation, but the inertia of the car is big, a bend easily, need to shift down to cut down the speed of the car, and down to low gear, low speed gear to inertia brake force.

In the brake parking is the same, first step on the brake to a low speed, and then step on the clutch, so that the car stopped smoothly.
