(2) If vehicle does not start properly;
^ Case A - When hill-holder is released later than engagement of clutch (engine tends to stall): Loosen adjusting nut gradually until smooth starting is enabled.
^ Case B - When hill-holder is released earlier than engagement to clutch (vehicle slips down slightly): Tighten adjusting nut so that hill-holder is released later than engagement of clutch (status in Case A).
Then make adjustment the same as in Case A.
