Have you stalled your diesel? :)

I'm all mixed up.

What's worse is going from the manual to an auto and mistakenly stepping on the "clutch"...



Once you pick your nose out of the windshield, you learn not to do that again...

I regularly drive my '07,a Honda Pilot,a '98 Accord(5-speed) and my work vehicle,a '92 Hino cabover w/Allison. I'm forever pushing in the "clutch" on the Pilot and Hino.

I have never stalled mine. I've seen my dad do it once or twice with the snowplow and you hit something unexpected. I've seen people try though. My sister has put it in third at stop signs, and it just goes. A couple of my friends have also gone from 2nd to 5th, but it just adds fuel and keeps on going.

Pulled into a parking space 3 ft. in front of a tree. Wasn't thinking, and released the clutch before putting it in neutral.

Stalled out my truck a few years ago in 1st gear, 4lo.

We were cutting down a 100'+ elm tree that was more than 3' diameter (3' bar on the Still 088, took 2 cuts).



The tree fell, and the way we tied it to my truck (and a 10 ton International Dump), both trucks were on asphalt.



Started driving my truck forward when told to go. All the sudden, I am being drug backwards, and the engine decides to stall. Not fun.

The International did not go the wrong direction, but it really did not move in the correct direction either.

I stalled our old Freightliner and the old International.



Freightliner-26k GVWR 5. 9 ISB(215hp 520tq) 6 speed (no low) stopped for road construction on a 6%grade, wouldn't go forward after stopping



International- COE with Detroit 6-71. Traffic on I-10 east bound from Indio pulling grade. Got that one started again, but never did have to worry about traffic again, we were slower than everything else

Wet boot, slick pedal. . ouch



But worst was pulling into a parking place, in a rush. l..... distracted by the cell phone and thought I was in neutral. That one hurt, I was sure I had broken something. DAHHHHH
