    hi guys -

    just want to ask. what i do during stop-and-go traffic when i want the car to move just a few meters/feet is to bring the clutch to it's working level without applying gas. when i want to stop, i just press on the clutch and the break. is this a good or bad practice? should i use the usual way of applying a little gas to move? is this fuel-saving?

    thanks.

    actually, walang problema dun, as long as di mo ibababad. put it in neutral kung nakahinto ka na...

    Wala naman wear sa clutch when it is fully depressed. Wear occurs as you transition from fully depressed to fully engaged.

    ok lang ba na before reaching the traffic, switch na to neutral ang kambyo? ganun kasi ang ginagawa ko, esp during stop light...ano kaya effect nun?

    Yun din ang ginagawa ko. Normal naman palit ko ng brakes. Naglast naman ang tranny ko. 169k na odo ko. Although, nagpalit ako ng gears ng 120k (2nd gear).
