Clutches and Flywheels
Clutches and flywheels are parts of a car’s transmission, enabling drivers to accelerate and change gears. They come in a variety of combinations based on the driver’s needs and quality of the ride.

How do you bleed the clutch slave cylinder on a 1989 ford bronco 2?
Ensuring the cylinder feed reservoir is full...A whitish 'cup' against firewall near the brake reservoir... slide under the driver's side of the vehicle just behind the tire and look up at the tranmission. You will see, on the side of the forward end of the case, an area where the resevior feeds the clutch and directly above that is the bleed scew. Having someone depress the clutch while you open and immediately shut the bleed valve and then repeating the process until you get a steady brake fluid stream(yes, you use DOT3 brake fluid), you will have successfully bled the clutch.

Hello. Check your master cylinder!
This is attached on the motor left side.
Pobably the cylinder doesn't move or very difficult.
It's probably the result off bad, old öl!

Does the slave cylinder open and close?
No, the slave cylinder is a typical hydraulic piston; if the system was 'opened' then the fluid would come out.
What should you do to replace clutch will not shift in to gears?
I would first check the master cylinder, and slave cylinder. Not knowing anything about the auto, most use hydraulics to release and engage the clutch. A clutch disc will tend to slip when in higher gears when it starts showing signings of wear. Most car companies use dot 3 brake fluid in their clutch systems.
How do you know when the clutch is bad on your washing machine?
The transmission will not engage fully,,,the spin cycle may be slow or start off slow OR may not even start is there are too many clothes in the load. The wash cycle may not agitate.
It might be a wedge, lever or stake used to arrest the motion of a car or carriage (a simple brake or chock), or an upright support (ie- mine prop).
It is also a clutch mechanism, or a reference to specific components within a certain type of clutch.
It may also mean the infantile offspring of the Codfish; a name for Codfish babies.
A flywheel is a mechanical device with significant moment of inertia used as a storage device for rotational energy. Flywheels resist changes in their rotational speed, which helps steady the rotation of the shaft when a fluctuating torque is exerted on it by its power source such as a piston-based (reciprocating) engine, or when the load placed on it is intermittent (such as a piston pump). Flywheels can be used to produce very high power pulses as needed for some experiments, where drawing the power from the public network would produce unacceptable spikes. A small motor can accelerate the flywheel between the pulses. Recently, flywheels have become the subject of extensive research as power storage devices for uses in vehicles; see flywheel energy storage.
How do you replace the clutch in a 2002 saturns sl2?
To replace the transmission clutch on any stick shift vehicle, remove the engine and/or transmission.
The engine and transmission must be separated since the clutch is between them.
Pull the flywheel and have it resurfaced.
replace the flywheel, following recommended procedures.
Use a new pilot bushing/glan nut.
Replace the clutch disk using a NEW pressure plate assembly and be certain to align the disk using a pilot shaft.
Re-install the engine/transmission in the reverse order that you took it/them out.
Why would you hear a grinding noise from clutch when idling?
The clutch bearing or " throw out" bearing is going bad and will need to be replaced, take this opportunity to change the clutch as well.
How do you change the clutch slave cylinder in a 1992 Mitsubishi eclipse gs?
Parts/supplies required:
New slave cylinder (includes boot, pushrod and 90 degree fitting)
Brake fluid (consult owners maual for type, dot 3 or 4 is OK)
1 can spray brake cleaner
Rags
Drain pan
Hand cleaner
Tools needed:
13 mm socket
6" extention
3/8" drive rachet
10 mm box wrench
13 mm line wrench
1. Start by raising the vehicle a little bit to gain access.
2. Open the hood and locate the clutch master cylinder. Remove the cap and top off the fluid with new unused brake fluid. Replace the cap. (This will minimize the amount of fluid leakage later.)
3. By acces from under the front of the vehicle, locate the slave cylinder just right of center near the front of the transmission. Place drain pan under the cylinder. Spray all around the cylinder with the brake cleaner to remove all dirt, grease, and grime.
4. Loosen the banjo bolt holding the line to the cylinder and fluid will run out. When it stops, remove the bolt, fitting, and both crush washers.
5. Remove both mounting bolts using the ratchet and socket. Slave cylinder, boot, and pushrod should all come out as a unit.
6. Again, spray all of the area with the brake cleaner.
7. Do not remove the fitting from the metal line, it will be reused.
8. Open your new cylinder package and assemble the boot to the push rod. The recess in the rod will insert into the boot so the shorter end is extended from the boot and the longer end is inside the boot. Slide the boot over the end of the cylinder so as to seat the boot into the groove. The rod should be firmly seated ino the piston.
9. Place the assembly into position as the old one was. Be sure to make sure the pushrod is seated firmly into the clutch fork.
10. Locate the two crush washers and new banjo bolt. Place one washer onto the bolt, insert the bolt into the old fitting, slide on the other washer onto the bolt.
11. Thread the banjo bolt into the cylinder but do not tighten.
12. Reattach the cylinder with the two bolts removed earlier. Tighten snugly, but do not over tighten.
13. Tighten the banjo bolt.
14. Loosen the bleeder screw about a quarter turn.
15. Back up top, remove the master cylinder cap. The fluid level should start to slowly drop. Do not let the fluid fall below the fill mark.
16. Close the bleeder screw when fluid starts to run out.
17. Now locate a helper. They just need to be able to reach the clutch pedal.
18. Have your helper push the pedal few times and hold it.
19. Open the bleeder screw a fraction to allow fluid to escape. You may experience some bubbling or a popping stream. This is normal. Once the padal reaches the floor, have your helper hold it until you close the bleeder.
20. Once closed, top off the master and repeatstep 19 untilno air is released from the bleeder screw. Good Luck!
Sounds like a bad clutch or pressure plate
Why would the clutch not retract after you push it in on a 1988 Mazda B2000?
There is air in the clutch hydraulic system. This can be because the Master or Slave is bad, low fluid level, or it was not completely bled after installing a Slave or Master. Usually this problem is caused by a bad clutch slave which has leaked out all of the fluid.

Loud whine disappers when you put foot on the clutch?
generally speaking if the noise dissapears with your foot on the clutch it indicates a fault with the gearbox input/primary shaft bearing which could involve complete strip down of box in some cases. the reason the noise dissapears is that by putting the clutch down you are removing the load from the gearbox (transmission-US) hope this helps robb
The clutch fluid and the brake fluid can both be filled in the brake fluid reservoir.
Hydraulic clutch line won't go in slave cylinder?
the slave could be holding pressure, try and open the bleeder valve and connect the line.
How do you adjust the clutch for 98 cavalier?
The clutch on a 98 cav. is hydrolic and has no adjustment. If still full of fluid "brake fluid"needs replaced.
Where do you check the clutch fluid on a 1997 suzuki sidekick?
Edit by Acker_dackerly:
In 1996, Suzuki started selling a larger version of the Sidekick called the Sidekick Sport. Besides a larger engine (1.8 I4 followed by a 2.0 I4), they were also equipped with a Hydraulic clutch. The hydraulic clutch fluid vessel is to the left of the brake master cylinder on the firewall. It is a translucent white container about the size of a large pill bottle. You can use brake fluid or clutch fluid to top it off.

The material following this text (after the string of hypens) was NOT published by me and represents the writings of someone who merely "thinks" he knows everything.
Observe the word "suicide" in his/her second sentence. This is a sure sign of someone who has assumed that the Tracker/Sidekick are dangerous vehicles. The irony to this is the fact that it was the Suzuki Samurai (not the next-gen Sidekick/Tracker!) that Consumers Union claimed was an unsafe vehicle despite their own original testing and the observations of numerous vehicle safety agencies to the otherwise.
If you don't "KNOW" something about a topic, it is best to keep one's piehole shut. This would - at least microsopically - add to the overall reliability of the information found on the Internet...
------------------------------
As I recall, the sidekick/suicide/tracker uses a cable clutch linkage. Clutch fluid is only used with a hydraulic clutch.
If you have a cable clutch, and if you have low clutch pedal or excessive clutch pedal freeplay (more than 1/2 inch is excessive less than 1/4 inch is insufficient) check for adjustment at clutch fork lever end of clutch cable near righthand side front of transmission.
On these vehicles, a locknut isn't used so it is common for an adjustment nut to back off (loosen) on the cable end. If loose, tighten until freeplay is normal and then consider using a locknut (get a nut from the hardware store for under $1) or use a drop of thread locking compound (under $2.50 at most auto parts stores) to keep the adjusting nut in place.
Also consider the possibility of an excessively worn input shaft bearing or worn clutch fork or worn throwout (release) bearing or pivot.
Explain flywheel effect of a tank circuit?
Fly wheeling or ringing is a process where by circulating current will cause a ringing effect where that is useful is on SCR circuit to reverse power for a shot time enough to reduce holding current therefore shutting the device off
How the clutch works in 2 wheelers?
A clutch is that part of engine which engages or disengages power from the engine crankshaft to transmission. A clutch is mechanism by which you change the gears. In simple words, it turns on or off power to rear wheel. A clutch is made of clutch assembly which includes clutch plate, Clutch basket, Clutch hub, pressure plates, Clutch springs, lever and clutch cable.
Clutch Basket: It is bowl shaped basket which holds entire clutch assembly. It has teethes on the outside surfaces which fix on the primary drive teethes. It means that it is connected with the transmission. It is bolted onto the end of clutch shaft.
Clutch Hub: The clutch hub places between clutch basket and pressure plate. The clutch plates are mounted on it. It has teethes in the centre hole which rotate with main shaft. It means it is connected with the engine.
Clutch Plate: There are two types of plates in clutch plate. One is Drive (friction) plate another is Driven (Steel) plate
Drive (friction) plate: The friction plate is ring shaped and coated with fiber. It is a wear and tear part of clutch assembly. The friction plate surfaces interface between the clutch basket tangs (gaps) and pressure plate. It has teethes on the outside surfaces. These teethes fix on the cutouts between clutch hub tangs (gaps). It is coated with the same material as you see in brake pad (shoe).
Driven (steel) plate: It is ring shaped and made of steel and sometime of aluminum. The surfaces of steel or aluminum plate interfaces between pressure plate and clutch hub. It has teethes on inside surfaces. This teethes are fix on the cutouts of clutch hub. Mostly steel plates are used in clutch assembly due to their durability. The aluminum plates are used in Moto GP due to their lighter weight. These plates are worn out very fast compare to steel plate.
Pressure Plate: It is the moving part of the clutch assembly which works against clutch spring tension. It releases the clamping action on the clutch plates when the clutch lever is engaged.
Clutch springs: The clutch springs shape is like short coil. These springs continuously hold the friction and steel or aluminum plates through spring tension. It also prevents slippage except when the clutch lever is engaged. Most of motorcycle has five or more springs used per clutch assembly. For higher engine output stiffer or more springs are used while softer or few springs used in order to lighter clutch level pulling effort.
Lever: It is metal rode which pivots on a perch located of the left handlebar. It gives input to clutch assembly.
Clutch Cable: The clutch cable is a cable through which the rider's input passes to the clutch internals.
Clutch Cover: It covers the entire clutch assembly
Clutch will not return upright on a frontera?
check cable
Fronteras don't have clutch cables. They are hydraulic, so check you have plenty of fluid in the reservoir. Then check the spring on the pedal hasn't broken or come off.
If all is ok, bleed the system.
It could also be possible that the master cylinder has stuck.
