SHIFT GEARS ON HILL
EASY TO THE WISE
When Neutral, Speed Up, Then
Throw Into intermediate,
Says Expert.

Some automobile drivers do not like
to shift gears on hill because Of
the difficulty, either because Of the
clashing of the years or losing too
much car momentum wnen making the
change. II this is the case then the
driver has yet to learn the art Of
shifting gears.
The clashing of gears generally can
be avoided by not making the shift
too quickly and momentarily speeding
up the motor. 1t is good advice 10
start changing from direct to inter-
mediate before the car speed has fallen
too low. and Immediately the gears are
in neutral, monientariiy speed up the
motor and then shift into intermediate.
ease, says Motor Age
On the other hand, do no. let the
motor speed reduce when coming from
a higher to lower gear; rather al
ways increase the speed. The reverse
is true when You are accelerating, 60
to high. When making thes. shifts
the motor speed should be momentarily
reduced II the change is to be made
quietly and readily.
Quite frequently the solution of hill
climbing is found in not shifting gears
on the hill. but making the change at
the bottom of the hill. Often a hill
can be climbed much more quickly by
shifting from high into intermediate
at the foot or before reaching the foot
and getting the motor speed up to it's
best zone Of hill-climbing efficiency.
This is particularly true where the hill
Is of medium length.
No graver error in hill-climbing can
be made than that of hanging Oil 700
long onto a higher gear and slowing
the car I'D perceptibly when making the
shift. The proper shift In climbing a
hill is made without the speed OF the
car being perceptibly lowered, in fact.
here should not be any apparent reduc-
ion in speed. as IL is a serious loss TO
ct the car slow down only to have to be
accelerated again on lowar gear.
Rushing a hill in order TO make the
ascent on high gear is poor policy, par
icularly il the approach il rough. You

stones, or by shaking up the car over
