What causes manual transmissions to have no power when shifting?

If the clutch is not slipping, I would say the transmission is fine, the engine may be the reason for the lack of power.

Does a manual transmission make a car faster than an automatic?
in some cases...but automatic shifts faster than most manual drivers ;) yes that is true but manual delivers more power due to manual transmissions using a completely mechanical connection to transfer power from the fly wheel to the tranny... if you have any questions just ask but you are rght on the first one but not talking about shifting the manual delivers more power because on an automatic power is lost going through a torque converter because of the liquid connection
What is faster a manual 79 camaro or an automatic?
Vehicles with manual transmissions almost always have more net horsepower at the rear wheels. More power is siphoned off through the torque converter in an automatic transmission than through the clutch and pressure plate in a manual transmission, thereby giving you greater rear-wheel horsepower from a manual transmission. That being said, automatic transmissions shift from gear to gear faster than you are able to shift gears in a manual transmission, unless you are really, really good at speed shifting. :)
Horsepower for 2001 7.3 power stroke f250?
250HP for automatics, 275 with manual transmissions.
What switch prevents shifting in 95 escort manual transaxle?
There is no switch which will keep it from shifting. Instead, the clutch is not releasing the power of the engine from the transmission. Bleed the clutch.
Can you transmission fluid for power steering?
Do NOT use transmission fluid in your power steering. It is designed for automatic transmissions, and a few rare manual transmissions only. (1965 Plymouth "Slant Six" manual transmission used automatic transmission fluid). In most Chrysler products made after about 2002, ATF is what they use for power steering fluid.
Why did the 1953 Corvette come only with a powerglide?
Because Chevrolet was afraid that their manual transmissions would not be able to handle the power of the Corvette.
Why are manual transmission cars faster than automatics?
manual transmissions use a clutch to transfer power from the tranny to the fly wheel. this connection is completely mechanical in a manual tranmission vehicle making the car faster then an automatic... automatics use someting called a torque converter that uses a liquid connection to transfer power from the fly wheel to tranny... this liquid connection used in a torque converter causes some of the power coming from the engine to be wasted.... this is alos why manual transmission cars are more fuel efficient. if you have any questions just ask me. thanks
What causes an automatic to shift hard in all gears?
there is a slight way if you have a good enough engine and some skill its called power shifting you should google it
What causes a 2002 TDI diesel Volkswagen Beetle to not have power when shifting and accelerating?

In what stage modulation is done in high power AM transmissions?
RF Power stage
Use of flywheel generally?
The flywheel from an engine standpoint is used to balance the Crankshaft and keep it moving through centrifugal force. From a transmission standpoint, it used as a mounting point for the clutch (manual transmissions) or the torque converter (automatic transmissions) and aids in the transfer of power from the engine to the transmission and down the rest of the drivetrain.
What kind of car transmission offers the best gas mileage?
Between automatic and manual transmissions, for an economy car, the manual transmission wins. There is no power wasted in a torque converter, like in an automatic transmission. You completely control when you shift which means you completely control the engine speed and the power to the wheels. To save gas with a manual transmission, all it takes is to pay attention to how much power you need and try to minimize it by using the correct gear. It can be a trial and error process.
