Question:
Which of these is NOT part of the basic method for shifting up?
1. Releasing the clutch
2. Pushing in the clutch and shifting into higher gear at the same time
3. Releasing the clutch and pressing the accelerator at the same time
4. Accelerating while pressing the clutch and turning toward the driver side
Explanation
You must release the accelerator, push in the clutch, shift to neutral, release the clutch, let the engine and gears slow down for the next gear, then push in the clutch and shift into a higher gear at the same time, then release the clutch and press the accelerator. Acceleration is not involved until the very end and definitely not while pressing the clutch.
