yeah my instructor tot me how to move off by depressing the accelerator first..then release clutch...

after a few lessons, i found that naturally i depressed shorter timing on the accelerator and clutch control is better...and move off faster

So instead of releasing clutch to half clutch first, depress acc first also can arh?

Manual so mafan, why not convert to auto better right? Need not use both leg for auto! If you depress wrongly before the car move, you kena stall sure will get honk want, trust me..

The accelarator gives power to the engine, only. It does not move the car.

The clutch connect the engine to the drive (the clutch plate), this moves the car.

So the clutch moves the car, the accelarator gives the power.

Link the sense of movement with the clutch. Don't forget the power.

Practice.
