Clutch

im not sure when they did the change over, i think it was in the early 90s

 

Some of the school trucks I learned in were probably definitely the old way then!

 

If they had cruise control, they were the new style.......

if'n you had to set a concret block on the throttle pedal, it was old style....

 

true---never thought about it like that lol

ther were some time the mixer i was driving that the throttle lock wouldnt hold and i wish i had a concrete block to put on the pedal

 

Like that analogy!

I don't remember, since that was over a decade ago that I went to school.

 

I usually start off in number 3 if MT, sometimes 4th. Never had a problem.

 

Always, let off clutch....no fuel !!!!!!

Release the clutch first, then mash the foot feed . Co- ordination takes practice.
An amateur practices until he can do it right. A professional practices until he cannot do it wrong. Just takes a little time.

 

Once again, no clutch and fuel together. Ever. It doesn't matter if he can do it in 4th in his truck. His truck is not your truck. If you can't do it in your truck, then you need to use a lower gear for starting.
