Should american highways have speed limits?
not that hard been doing it for 10 years. what do you really want to know. If you are trying to slow down by down shifting put the clutch in and hold it down put the car in the lower gear and slowly let of the clutch. if you are stopping at a light or sign you don't have to down shift until you actually stop just put the clutch in and hit the break. send me an e-mail if you want to know moregees it aint that damn hard!
Hard to answer when the question is obtuse ... what are you doing that doesn't work?
thought i read somewhere that they have changed the mot test now to every 2 years,is this right ?
Downshifting means you're slowing your engine down. So you would slowly ease off the gas and clutch gently and then gear down all the while listening to what your engine is doing. After awhile of always listening to your engine you do it automatically without thinking!i worked 8 hours with one 40 minute break, is that legal, what is the law?
I asked a very similar question several months ago, and was referred to this websit.>>>http://www.learnstickshift.com...Car Seats and Trucks in the State of PA?
Depending on the engine and transmission combination, it can be tricky. Some cars love to be downshifted and others hate it. Timing is everything. You might want to try not using the clutch when downshifting if you still are. Just be gentle and careful. You need to match engine rpm's to the gear you want. It can take time to learn this. If you are doing maybe 35 mph in third gear at 1500 rpm, this might also be 2200 rpm in 2nd gear. Practice, practice, practice. Learn your shift points and the rpm difference between gears. Be gentle on the shifter, and get the timing right and all will work out.Are you needing help knowing "when" to downshift? It's kind of hard to explain over the computer, but honestly, you just sort of "know" it needs shifting---up or down. It's all in listening to the rev of the engine.......If it sounds like the engine is about to blow up, well........lol
Are studded snow tires legal in New Jersey?
Listen to the engine, clutch in and down shift. When coming to a stop put the car in neutral and apply the brakes instead of down shifting. Downshifting will eventually wear out your clutch. It's cheaper to replace brakes than a clutch.More Questions & Answers ...
