It's burning clutch.

 

Dude it's gotta be clutch. You tryed do 3rd from a dead stop wich means you had to get your recs up and burn clutch to even get it to move and it still stalled. Yeah you defintly burn a lil clutch. the smell will pass but take it easy on the ol 7

 

What in the world possesed you to do that?

 

learn how to drive a stick, even the laziest of ppl dont start in 3rd.

 

Poor FC...

 

1st is such a wide gear.....what's the point of starting in any other gear? Its not like you were racing a guy.....which would still be stupid b/c it would take forever before you would be getting any real response out of the car.

Shift through the gears in order (only skipping while upshifting, like 3rd to 5th )

 

this is why I don't let people drive my car

 

That is the wonderful smell of a future clutch job if you keep it up . Seriously though, what would make you wanna try that? You do those kind of things in other peoples cars !

 

lol nah man it was the first day i did that and i got the smell i knew i had to be burning something trust me i take care of my FC like if it was my baby i make shure everything is ok i just did it one time and i got that smell lol neways ok now i know not to do that
