bearing used for the clutch to be placed into gear and to allow it to be depressed to slowly engage the transmission it is used to change the gears up shift and down shift. the throw out bearing pushes against a set of springs to disengage the engine from the transmission while pressing in the direction of the flywheel. the bearing is housed inside the transmission housing and in moved by a fork that travels forward and reward to allow the spinning flywheel to engage and disengage the clutch.

Will acetone workas a bearing cleaner?

yep. just throw it in a jar/bowl with your bearings and shake. just don't use it for a soak, because it might start to corrode the bearings (or the jar or bowl). dry them off very well with a hair dryer or compresses air, then throw some lube on. i recommend sewing machine lube, or lube meant for bearings such as bones speed cream.
