New driver struggling with petrol after learning in diesel
Passed my test last month and learned in a diesel, which I found really easy. I rarely stalled and was comfortable pulling away at junctions, traffic lights, etc.
I’ve now got a petrol car and I’m stalling all the time, especially when I have to stop and move off again. It’s even worse when there are loads of cars behind me because I panic and overthink everything.
Any tips for getting used to a petrol clutch/throttle and stopping myself from stalling? I’m really struggling
