Neutral check before starting or letting the clutch out.

I do that all the time. Also check that I didn't forget to put it in 1st when I came to a stop at the light just before it's time to get going.

why whiggle it though? you just need to push it in one direction to know it's not in gear

Its just a habbit that retards pick up. Usually a sign of drinking mountain dew, wearing a baseball cap backward, or being an Arab.

>he doesn't want to stir his fluids
lmao kiddo

Probably his return springs still work in both directions, too. Loser.

Back-forth once or twice is just reflexive for a fair amount of people, and it ensures it didn't get stuck trying to go into a gear when you first moved it.

>probably
way to hedge your statement brad
>loser
stop projecting faggot

You guys could just try not being argumentative shitters

Oh, my my. Look who's being an argumentative shitter now. It's (You) :D

I never did this until I saw a guy get t-boned in his s2k, kinda a habit now

>neutral wiggle
>put it in first right before the light goes green
>pop it back out
>wiggle
>back in
>roll

Was it Athus?

>why whiggle it though?

You don't give your shitbox a quick hand job?

I love to get wiggy widdit, it's fun and useful.

Short answer, to check whether you're in gear or not. Long answer, Manual transmission is seen as manly or skillful in the USA so people will try to make it as apparent as possible that they know how to change gear to show off to their friends. (See the popularity of
flashy aftermarket gear knobs and shift boots in America)
