Clutches and Flywheels

i had this same problem. what you have to do is get a brand new set of clutch discs and a new casing. it cost me $125 easy to do yourself. goodluck

diaphragam clutch is small in size as compare to spring clutch and it transmits more torque as diaphragm exerts more force as copare to springs...... therefore it is advantageous to use diaphragm...

It depends on the year and type of Harley, but on a late model Big Twin if the clutch cable can't be adjusted it can mean one of several things, the worst being a fried throwout bearing.

If there's no indication that the throwout bearing is bad, it may mean the ball & ramp clutch actuating mechanism (in the tranny end cover) is temporarily stuck in the "disengage" position. Usually just moving the cable end in and out will put it back into its default position.

It's also possible the clutch itself (not the cable) was incorrectly adjusted, in which case it's simplest to:

A) Fully shorten the cable sheath (at its adjuster)

B) Loosen the locknut at the center of the clutch

C) Screw the adjuster all the way in until it stops then back it out 1/2 turn

D) Retighten the locknut

E) Readjust the cable

dollar bill

94 and up came with an "auto clutch" and in 94 they were a problem! I don't know if ford ever fixed this problem

For starters, call and ask around. Prices can vary. To my knowledge, parts and labor should range from $400-$800 depending on the parts needed and labor involved.

and it transmits more torque as diaphragm exerts more force as copare to springs......

therefore it is advantageous to use diaphragm clutch intead of spring clutch...

more compact means of storing energy. thus compact design results in smaller clutch housing.........

less affected by centrifugal force..can withstand higher rotational speeds...

diaphragm acts as both clamping spring and release levers..therefore many extra parts like struts, eye bolts, levers etc can be eliminated....

You need speciality tools and take it to a dealership that can work on it cause you can snap the crank

no

The compressor clutch does not need to be shimmed. The outside disc is pressed on until the proper air gap is achieved. If it is pressed on to far it has to be pulled off and reinstalled.

it might not have any hydrolic fluid in the clutch master cylinder to engage the cluth or your clutch might me shot and just won't engage at all meaning you need a new one (was there a smell in the car right before you couldn't use clutch? that might of been the clutch burning up). don't quote me on all that I'm just telling you what you can check.

Most likely the shifting fork is worn within the transmission. You did not say what car but most late models have no adjustment. This problem usually shows up in the highest gear. Sorry.

Basically

1 Hang the engine from a bracket that runs over the top of the engine bay

2 Remove the rear tires, and brakes

3 Remove the two rear axle shafts

4 Remove the engine cradle, with the engine supported by the top bracket

5 Remove the transmission that is hanging with the engine

6 Remove the pressure plate, and clutch, and flywheel from the hanging engine

Installation is the reverse of the above

pump the clutch pedal several times it should fix your problem

well if you put the car in any gear and let out the clutch if you rev the engine and it dosent move or moves a little then it's the clutch but if it's a grinding noise and it doesnt move at all i'd say its the transmission my car was grinding and not moving and it was cause the spider gears were all busted and i had to rebuild my transmission

Because you have the hand break on

Clutch slipping

A clutch device enables engagement and disengagement of power from an engine. Most people associate clutches with transmissions and the vehicles they apply to.

there are two types of master cylinders

1.single cylinder

2.tendom master cylinder

Clutch is the left foot pedal in European cars.

When you engage the clutch and the engine sits there spinning: it get's no traction OR when there is no pressure on the clutch pedal: pressing it changes nothing.

FOR ME THERE IS NO WAY TO BLEED A CLUTCH ON A SATURN BUT IF YOU REPALCE ONE PART SOMETIME ITS POSSIBLE. 20 % CHANCE .THE ONLY WAY ITS TO REPLACE THE SLAVE AND THE CYLINDER AS A SEALED KIT

You need to check the fluid level.

The gear is the same, but the nose cone is different.

that is the wheel getting ready to change gear

Slack in the clutch release or clutch basket. It might adjust out.
