manual transmission visible clutch engagement

a cut away from a 1998 bmw 323iS with a windowed ZF310 trans and m20 single mass flywheel.
the transmission used to be in an M3 track car, the release bearing failed, overheated and friction welded itself on to the transmission input shaft guide tube. the windows were cut in to the bellhousing in non structural areas and it was installed with a new guide tube on a 1998 323iS to see what would happen. Input shaft bearings were very worn in this ZF, hence the wobblier than average release bearing here.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

One reason to avoid developing the habit of sitting at stoplights with the clutch depressed for minutes every time you stop. The pressure plate puts side-force on the engine crankshaft, the throw-out bearing on the clutch is constantly turning, lots of stuff wears more quickly. Best to pop the transmission into neutral while sitting stationary for any length of time, and release the clutch. Develop the habit early and a manual will last much longer over the years.

[@DR-JOHN-DEJAVU-1984]

Also, don't fall into the idea that while moving on the road in a flat area or in areas where you don't need to use the throttle by switching to neutral will save fuel. It doesn't, it's only best if you know you're coming to a stop or going downhill using momentum.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

Deceleration with a manual in modern fuel injected vehicles will ensure the fuel injection system will shut off, thereby using zero fuel when rolling down a hill or using engine braking to come to an eventual stop. So long as your foot is off the accelerator and the car is decelerating, the injection is shut off.

[@DacLMK]

I'm trying my best, but I can't help it but holding down on the clutch pedal, usually when I'm in either 1st or 2nd gear because I fear that the car will turn off when moving at slow speeds. My father constantly yells at me for that.

[@memejunkie7818]

Put in gear and roll down the hill, computer on my 2010 Corsa shows 0.0L/100km while doing that

[@exothermal.sprocket]

Instant mpg display on my 2015 goes right up to 99 mpg and stays there with the car engine-braking from speed or down a hill. In other words, infinite miles per gallon when the fuel injectors are shut off (per EPA requirements in fuel injected engines in vehicles) and the car is rolling by momentum.

[@GTAIVisbest]

I once was working on my 150cc scooter engine which has a metal cvt fan attached to the crankshaft. In layman's terms, imagine a big exposed saw blade that spins at whatever speed the engine is going. On those smaller engines, idling speed is about 4K RPM which means the saw blade is going about as fast as the clutch in the video when he applies throttle. So I have the saw blade thing exposed because I'm doing work to the transmission. I fire it up and see the saw blade spinning super fast. I had the intrusive thought to stick my finger in it and... I did. I gently brought the tip of my finger to the edge of the spinning metal disk. Everything was over in an instant. I felt an extreme sharp stabbing pain as the fan grabbed a hold of my finger, chewed it up and spat it out. THANKFULLY the finger did not get forced backwards because of the way I touched it and instead it just shattered my fingernail. It bled and swelled up but that was about it. Now I have a gutteral fear over exposed CVT fans and my urge to touch those spinning things is gone

My Beetle in the '70... The very first clutch disk didn't had the helicoidal springs to dampen clutch engagement. The clutch was driven by a tiny steel wire, which had the habit to break the last weekend of the month - never during the work week. The disk was high quality but was undersized, especially when you always had four passengers, and drove over steep inclines. The surface of the disk was like soap at the touch... it was high quality asbestos, just like the brake pads. We didn't know yet, at the time, of the damages to the body the material was capable of. Just like the lead in the petrol.

My Vauxhall Nova had an inspection panel in the bellhousing, which was big enough to allow you to remove the clutch and replace it without having to unbolt the gearbox. Turned an hours-long major job into a 30-min minor repair. I never understood why more manufacturers didn't do this.

@@OvalboreCars KZbin decided that it should be placed a little ways down in my recommended. So I found this. It was worth scrolling that far down XD

[@Mobischer]

@@OvalboreCars yeah i really wanted to see this video but i never thought it's on KZbin

[@domluthens1027]

Came across this and it was pleasant

[@nomore-constipation]

Thx YT algorithm for sending me this. But then again I'm sure this "rabbit hole" of a teaching episode won't stop here. Kudos to the guys who sliced it open.

[@OvalboreCars]

haha, sometimes it knows us better than we know ourselves

[@treyterbay]

Honestly 7 years later you are still the G.O.A.T. for this. Just know that

[@OvalboreCars]

I'm pretty sure I'm human?

[@00raisergundam]

After 6 years I was recommended this video and I am not dissatisfied.

[@MrCoconutMadness]

I love how you seem so happy dude

Props to this madlad for still replying to comments 👏🙌

[@OvalboreCars]

this lad isnt so mad

[@ragavnitinpande5612]

Single video that have no dislike ever. Even after 7 years

[@OvalboreCars]

has a lot of dislikes (a few hundred at least). KZbin just takes away that metric for viewers

[@derluke9674]

Sometimes you learn something that you never realised you wanted it to know so desperatly

[@norbertocalderonescalante371]

Gracias amigo por tomarse la molestia de mostrarnos de la mejor manera como opera el el conjunto de clutch

[@SubisUniverse]

The algorithm never fails see your guys again next year 🤞🏽

[@OvalboreCars]

happens about once every 3 months.

[@SubisUniverse]

@@OvalboreCars see you 🔜

[@OvalboreCars]

I'll be here, hmu

[@milk_420]

what's the difference between single mass and dual mass? I have an aftermarket clutch in my gti and it's single mass instead of the stock dual mass. is it lighter in terms of rotational mass? I also noticed that it makes that noise lol

[@OvalboreCars]

single mass it a billet and dual mass is two flywheels slotted together with springs.

[@Guitarfollower22]

never got to see the inside of a gearbox while all the inside parts are functioning, pretty cool not gonna lie

[@MrCoffeekelly]

Guitarfollower22 you didn't get to see one in this video either. Thats the bellhousing cut open, not the inside of a gearbox.

[@MrMazda-yw1cr]

MrCoffeekelly took the words right out of my mou... oh wait... I mean thumbs :P

[@Guitarfollower22]

isn't a gearbox just the housing of of the transmission and its married mechanical parts?

[@notafanboy250]

+Guitarfollower22 You only saw the flywheel/clutch/pressure plate assembly in this video along with the release bearing and its fork. Past the input shaft to the right is where the gearbox is. (not shown in this video)

[@Guitarfollower22]

ohhh okay thanks man

[@malibuice650]

Im finally watching it. After 3 years in my recommendations...

[@OvalboreCars]

and? :)

[@malibuice650]

Honestly? It was pretty neat to see, but slightly underwhelming.

[@HellHunter00]

@@malibuice650 It was -pretty neat- *super neato* to see.

[@sonjatheierl1]

Ive always seen the housing wheel with teeth now I know how it engages thanks

[@EXYukana]

it's 2AM wanted to sleep. tried to watch one last vid on YT and it led me here.

[@OvalboreCars]

This video does best at 2AM!

[@simonsmith6509]

Interesting video,I love to see how things work

[@atypical_moto]

The throwout bearing arm isn't under tension when the clutch is engaged so it will vibrate on its pivot point from engine vibration. As you can see, it stops shaking once the throwout bearing makes contact with the pressure plate.

[@tomjones7853]

Ding ding ding

[@cowthedestroyer]

Nothing better then the actual analog showing how it works. Makes it easier to show people that automagic transmissions aren't all they are stacked up to be

[@OvalboreCars]

animations are great for concepts, but rarely satisfying

[@Umuliuz]

It is one thing to imagine it working, another to actually seeing it in action.

[@OvalboreCars]

quite another indeed!

[@mandelaeffect3521]

I'm reporting this as porn and I'll make sure this gets uploaded to pornhub

[@kidzero1943]

Mandela Effect this is the glory hole

this should be top comment

[@JUMBOpin]

Zé no, yours should

[@JoshSmith-eq6fs]

That's super neat-o

[@realAlpha]

get a life ....

[@EditorDan]

After all those times my instructor told me the clutch is my friend I finally get to meet him

[@gameadventures1]

I was about to cut a whole in my trans, thank you for showing me this

[@JohnPaulBuce]

this is a certified hood clutch-sic
