What number should your handbrake be on?
When parking, especially on a hill, the hand brake should be fully engaged When you are driving a manual transmission vehicle, the handbrake can be partially engaged to give you better control as you push the clutch and gas when starting from a stopped position going uphill, so you don't roll backwards.
What gear should you drive in going up a steep hill?
When driving up a steep hill, it's best to use a lower gear, such as first or second gear, depending on the steepness and your vehicle's power. This allows for better torque and control, helping to maintain speed without overworking the engine. If you're driving a manual transmission, downshifting can help prevent stalling. For automatic vehicles, the transmission will typically shift down on its own, but you can also use a manual mode if available.

Hill start in automatic?
A hill start in an automatic car is typically easier than in a manual transmission because the vehicle's transmission manages gear changes and power delivery without the driver needing to engage a clutch. To perform a hill start, simply keep your foot on the brake while you shift into drive, then gradually release the brake to allow the car to move forward. Many automatic vehicles also come with features like hill hold assist, which temporarily keeps the brakes engaged on an incline, preventing rollback. Always ensure you are aware of your surroundings and use your mirrors when starting on a hill.

Sport trac od transmission light blinks?
As the manual says that if this light starts to flash on and off or stays on for a period of time that you must have your vehicle serviced immediately. This o/d light is referring to the transmission. O/d stands for overdrive. The transmission uses overdrive to provide more power to the wheels when the vehicle is rapidly accelerating or climbing a hill. After a certain point it will shift into the next higher gear and the revs should go down. The light flashing is indicating that there is either a loose connection or that your tranny is slipping. This is very critical to have serviced immediately. Transmissions are costly and especially with this model I have heard alot of them having to be completely replaced. The earlier you catch it the better. Take your vehicle to a transmission specialist and have them quote you on the problem ASAP.
