HOW A CLUTCH WORKS

HOW DOES A AUTOMOTIVE CLUTCH WORKS

[@erikig]

The best visualization of manual clutch functionality that I've seen so far.

[@regisphilmn]

This is by far the cleanest clutch ive ever seen....also just pops right off. And the lift and jack....l got one of those. I'm ready to do a perfect clutch job. Thank you so much!!

[@boyinlove2k]

One of the best explained videos of clutch operation on KZbin.

[@cachorrodetiger]

Awesome video, so far the best about the topic here in Utube Polytechnic. Thanks for the posting.

[@SnowMonkVX]

I feel like I know something now. Whenever I want to learn something automotive wise, I always end up finding these older prior 2000's vids the best.

[@RiotStarter27]

*Amber- The reason they blow their clutch is because when launching, the flywheel is spinning at such a high rpm the pressure plate can not catch up fast enough so it gets hot and shreds. This is especially seen in older style clutches. Now we have ceramic pressure plates which handle heat much better. *Katra- When replacing a clutch its ALWAYS best to resurface the flywheel. If it is to worn down you need to replace it. The reason being, the clutch and the flywheel both wear into eachother and develope what is called a wear pattern. If the wear pattern is not correct it will cause the new clutch to prematurely wear. This is also true when replacing disc style brakes. Resurfacing the rotors when replacing the brake pads is always a good idea if you let the breaks wear down to far. I hope this helps everyone understand a little more. Questions? Feel free to email me. Always glad to help.

[@orbik_fin]

The only good demonstration of how a clutch works I've seen at all.

[@SquillyMon]

An excellent video description... I couldn't find a single mistake in the entire video.

[@adipplayer3992]

I only compeletely understood how it works after watchind this video. You showed everything the most precisely. Thanks a lot for posting!!!

[@MarkSRiddle]

BEST explanatory video I've seen about clutch until now, I was exactly looking for this kind of instructions. I got the vibration part, but I still have a question though, when we shift up a little sooner (without rev-matching) so the revolution is a little bit down and we force it up by accelerating so the car is more at ease to make it stop vibrating. Well first: What is that vibration and where it come from ? Second: is that harmful ? This is addressed to everyone, whomever know the answer, feel free to share with me. Thanks,

[@Voss2120]

Who ever invented this is a genius.

[@carlos5619]

no actually who invented the manual transmission was the devil himself

[@TonyStark-cv5vd]

+Carlos Alberto true that

[@robertlevis3633]

go back to your autos then.. you and the gf can share the minivan lol

[@JordieMotive97]

I just love the fact that they used an R33 Skyline GTR to demonstrate hahaha :D

[@nagarajaa.b4332]

Very useful video for auto industry youths really it's nice explain.

[@755hp]

1:22 This music along with this demonstration reminds me of a National Geographic Episode from the 90s or something...

[@larsvbundli1740]

+755hp it kinda reminds me of music I've heard in transport tycoon

[@FallenMonk55]

Best clutch info vid ever!

[@tpmbe]

excellent video , explanation and animations ....thanks

[@wakeelmohammed2473]

This is super awesome sir. I was being searching for the explanation of the tortion spring. You made me clear! Thank you very much!

[@Islam_nfs]

best one I've ever watched.... Good explanation thanks very much @vikas

[@MrManan123456]

best video seen yet on clutch good work..

[@vasudevg8171]

Excellent Vey informative and simple to understand for non automotive engineers

[@yannickbrunia7965]

As a carguy I love this stuff. great video

[@ZachGRocketBossZach]

This is how I imagine an alien's voice to sound.

[@adikineelappa]

an excellent video for understanding the clutch functioning for beginners.

[@cellphonelightsaber]

THE GRAN TURISMO VIBE IS SO STRONG. Super detailed explanation!

[@TechTrader108]

Brilliantly explained....no doubts on that

[@KRAZEEIZATION]

The music is great! The piano is like Dave Brubeck! Great video with cool music while viewing!

[@sujitkamble2680]

ggg

[@dkfirozkhan6362]

Hi

[@poojamehta9391]

Thank you very much sir for explaination in detail.My concept about "how the clutch is working?" is fully clear.

[@brayanguillen788]

Excellent video! That music tho! I love it!

[@kennedykiplagat8646]

Excellent educative....now i know

[@ahmedshaheenredcar21341]

this is the best video i have seen in my life thanx very much

[@GuitarGuys7299]

Cool video and all, but I wish everything I worked / work on was / is as clean as the new stuff they were demonstrating with.

[@matthiasschulze393]

thanks for posting this exedy video..i may need to replace my clutch and i may look into parts from this manufacturer

[@chanthuprasannan5564]

This explanation is so helpful for me.

[@sa3idsaad985]

thank you so much, this helped me a lot, finally i got the idea after watching 100s of videos, i appreciate it

[@NormaNsNs]

its an amazing video demonstration !

[@toyconph3642]

The most neat and clean engine i'v ever seen👍🏿

[@bhushandhuri2660]

This video is really great..👌👌👍👍

[@NewGamer101]

Its amazing how music can change the theme of anything.

[@patricktan5111]

very nice information..precise !!!

[@ronjeremyjnr]

Very informative, good video.

[@moneymikegsr1]

good video and nice to see a GT R in the video as well

[@kanakendranr2222]

Excellent work

[@sanydreik]

Great video. Thanks!

[@Katra1981]

when replacing the clutch is better to replace the flywheel that way you make sure it wont fail , gret video

[@CH-rs7cm]

No one clutch timing is so essential. . .and yes, so is music.

[@ermatonx]

El mejor vídeo que encontré mejor explicado el único que tenia la información que buscaba felicitaciones .

[@ANANTHPRABU84]

superb! amazing & detailed explanation.

[@toasted1198]

A video like this might seem a bit tawdry but it's useful to me.

[@azo-ongoraymond4305]

You have done a great job

[@allowambeBOWWAMB]

Sounds like the UAC videos in Doom 3

[@mekonengebre3901]

simple and effective explanation. i like it!

[@basharatrajpoot9317]

you wonderful mind I liked videos

[@MM0SDK]

Good choice of car for demonstrating the rev counter.... Nissan Skyline GTR? R33 / R34? Edit: Looks like R33 dials, judging by the analogue odometer that uses a physical dial, instead of the more recently common LCD odo display.

[@sanjaygiri2498]

Wow nice video

[@TechTrixInfo]

Good JOb, its a good learning tool, keep going.

[@adipplayer3992]

I think that the whole clutch disk absorbs quite a lot of crankshaft's energy.

[@DPWrepublic]

that's why I like manual transmission

[@ForeverEuroHouse]

nice explanation. good animation.

[@gordonho5986]

they used a GTR for the example car. I like this vid already. haha

[@ssj02]

Very informative video. A lot of similar stuff on KZbin involves stupid ass knuckle heads speaking lot of shit and throwing stupid jokes turning it into a long video that could have been done in half the time. This is straight to the point with clear demonstration. Thanks for the info.....good job. Thumbs those who agree!

[@prawtism]

Watched the video, can confirm, I'm now a CS:GO clutch master.

[@srlle11]

Excellent.

[@-Muhammad_Ali-]

excellent video

[@somboonintaraprasert2015]

Very nice

[@BlitzkriegRap]

The fact that there is only 1mm clearance between clutch plate and pressure disc when clutch pedal is pressed scares me in some weird way.

[@djkasdjkasdjdjdj]

IKR what if a bug got slipped between those

[@jordanv2377]

a bug could never get in there. the whole thing is enclosed

[@djkasdjkasdjdjdj]

then how can the heat escapes from all those friction?

[@BearBoulder]

The heat is dissipated through the flywheel, what heat there is. If you're heating up your transmission to the point it's a problem, you need to stop driving stick.

[@amber08mcgraw]

So, if you wanted to race, say drag race, you should look into buying a specialized clutch plate with upgraded Torsion Springs that can absorb the high impact of popping the clutch? (Trying to figure out why people 'blow their clutch' on the track during launch)

[@geforce5700fx]

Very good video !

[@MrBarak1984]

Thanks for informed

[@SomeOne1199]

Now I know what are the springs for!

[@tnguyen318]

We need to re-write 85% the study of Automobile Transmission.

[@CuriousMindCheng]

I still have a key question unanswered from the video, and would welcome anyone who has the knowledge to answer it. When the pressure plate is pulled away from the clutch disc as the clutch pedal is being pressed, why does the clutch disc slide along the input shaft (shown as output shaft in your video) towards the direction of the pressure disc (thus disengaging from the flywheel), when there is no force driving it to do so? Remember all we are doing is to disengage the flywheel from the clutch disc, and the flywheel does not actively pull the clutch disc away from the flywheel. The inertia should keep the clutch disc in contact at least momentarily with the flywheel, thus spinning still with it at the same speed, until the friction is not enough to keep it that way. If that is correct, the slipping friction will wear the clutch disc in this case. But again, what is the reason that you say in your video the the clutch disc is going to disengage from the flywheel (meaning that we create a space between the flywheel and the clutch disc by pressing the clutch pedal)?

[@Tro1086]

There is nothing that pulls the clutch disc away from the flywheel. The pressure plate pressing against the clutch disc is what creates the friction with the flywheel. The pressure plate always spins with the flywheel also, only the clutch disc is attached/splined to the transmission input shaft. When you remove pressure from the pressure plate you remove the vast majority of the friction between the clutch and flywheel. There is no inertia holding the clutch disc against the flywheel, only the pressure plate. Think of disc brakes, there is nothing that pulls the pad away from the rotor when you release the brake pedal, yet if everything is functioning properly there is very little remaining friction between the pad and the rotor when the brakes are released.

[@user-qc4sy8jz8d]

good vedio

[@kokilbarma7866]

best video about clutch

[@nissanjdm702]

this fucking music sounds like am playing some fucking grand turismo bs.

[@parsasajedi2620]

That was a GTR, and you worry about the music?!!

[@JoelGarciaJaquez]

Great tutorial

[@PatriciazunigahotmailcomDavidy]

No

[@MrNickwilliams1]

Its not the spring so much its the presure plate that wears out when u got the engine end spinning at a very hih rat of speed and the other at a stoped postintion and when they come together the plates grind there surfaces of eachother

[@sainteustatious]

4:39 they used a gtr, nice.

[@user-zx7zz1hl8i]

طريقه عمله وابداعيه بكل معنى الكلمه

[@toykoi]

Nice Vid.

[@eknathchavhan7539]

amazing

[@anuprajpurohit]

Good

[@jamil_ahsan]

A thing I can't figure out - why clutch plate burns when clutch is disengaged (clutch pedal pressed) & gas pedal applied? It seems clutch plate is not in contact with flywheel so why does it burn?

[@icyfyer]

The distance between the clutch and flywheel is 1mm or less, which means that any fluctuation in the tolerance can cause friction. There is also slipping friction when releasing and engaging.

[@rejee100]

good video.

[@cadavatar]

This video made no mention of the Pilot Bearing. HUGE oversight. They even had a finger in the hole at the center of the flywheel where it goes but... NO BEARING. NO MENTION. So, if you're reading this, if you are replacing the clutch assembly, you really should replace the pilot bearing. If you can't pry or pull it out, get a pilot bearing tool, or if you cannot get a pilot bearing tool, there is a novel technique I have used that works. Search "Remove Pilot Bearing" to find videos on KZbin, there are several.

[@cadavatar]

It's common practice to replace the pilot bearing when replacing the clutch, just as it's common practice to replace the water pump when you replace the timing belt. The reason, of course is to avoid the ridiculous expense of going back in and replacing a very inexpensive part that wears down from use, that should have been replaced for a few dollars more while everything was apart. I really shouldn't have to explain this to you.

[@cadavatar]

Oh and many clutch kits include the pilot bearings... for good reason.

[@TheGuruStud]

+Ted Berner Transmission with short input shafts may not even use a pilot bearing. Interesting info when I learned it.

[@cadavatar]

+TheGuruStud having pilot bearings is more common than not.

[@Cringle84]

+Ben quinn He is not full of shit, its standard practise

[@salahalnasaj4962]

Good ممتاذ جداً

[@dexterrosales5321]

I've got an old 8DC9 fuso twin turbo double clutch disc. I've been looking for a tutorial here and all i found were the new dual clutch transmissions of the sports cars. I doubt they're the same. Anybody knows how the double clutch of old 8DC9s work?

[@danyowaz555]

music sounds like need for speed from ps1

[@TheAmarDK]

You're not alone :D

[@dtbjjrb]

Why did 5:48 have me burst out laughing??? XD

[@PrabhuDevKumarPeter]

its good..

[@GymChess]

How common is it to change the transmission fluid when working/changing/repairing the clutch per se?

[@VictorMartinez-dv9cf]

GymChess depends on the type of car and how hard you drive the transmission. Maybe every other 2 years or so. Not sure. If you dont drive it hard I doubt you would need to replace it that often. Maybe every 10k miles

[@k24hybrid]

thanks!!

[@b3nrik]

dat sound quality!

[@gatecrashermonkeyhardstylz4378]

wouldn't it be nice if all gearboxes were clean and just popped right off... lol

[@ibrahimmelbayaa2965]

genius

[@hadifallahi3258]

nice

[@ranjanashrivastva9345]

friction is good for a mechanical engineer

[@ZerokillerOppel1]

Chinese garage video? The music is your typical '80's promotional company muzak...

[@ItsJoshNorman]

6:38 onwards is just porn music while they gently rub parts with a cloth, take bits apart in slow motion and then put them back together sensually.
