As a non-mechanic, I appreciate you reverse-engineer a clutch to demonstrate how it works, and what common problems can be. I particularly liked the part where you disassembled the riveted plate to see the importance of those springs. Thank you for your time and efforts.
Good 👍
This is one of the most informative videos I've seen on UA-cam. Not only did you explain the basics, but you took it the next level explaining the springs and the dampening.
I have recommended this channel to so many people. This man takes a complex set of things and breaks it down for the less experienced person can gain a real working knowledge of what’s going on in a transmission. Thank you.
Appreciate that. Thanks for watching.
oh my gosh, dude. so many questions ive had for YEARS (i learn everything on my own) finally answered. i dont think any videos before youre adequately got into how all these parts actually work together. You finally scratched the itch and answered the questions. thank you so much, sir. It finally makes sense to me!!!
Thank you. Please subscribe to my channel
I thought I would never learn how this worked. Thank you for the hands on detailed approach.
I learned a bunch watching this video. Am 71 and I remember shifting those gears and popping those clutches back as a teen in the sixties while making those cars bark and smokin' tires was a daily part of life. Now I know the science behind the experience. You are an excellent teacher! Enjoyed the video.
I really liked the detailed description on the construction of the clutch disc itself. Thanks for a great video
This guy knows his stuff! Great teacher too.
95TurboSol Thanks a bunch!
Wow! I love all the theory explains such as harmonics relative to numbers of cylinders.
An automotive semester on clutches learned in 17 minutes.
Thank you.
Jesus Christ, thank you! I search for almost an hour on youtube to try to find a good explanation of how a clutch works and yours was the only video that provides an explanation that someone like me (who's not mechanically inclined) can understand.
Thank you again!
Thanks.... please share the vid!
Thank
I've wasted a lot of money on rubbish car instructors who taught me nothing about nothing. I've learnt more from you. Thanks for keeping and showing us the old Ferrari clutches. You really know your stuff. Look forward to watching more if your videos.
Thank you
these videos are priceless. in this wasteful day and age, the knowledge gained to help understand, troubleshoot, and potentially repair your vehicle from Paul is invaluable. Thank you sir!
Amazing video. Finishing up a transmission swap in my 66 mustang and seeing more in depth how each piece really works was invaluable!
Finally, i just got the real and full explanation of clutch.
Thank you so much for this!
It only took me 8 years to find this excellent tutorial on clutch nomenclature. Let's see what I find in the next 8 years. Thank you for the information.
Never to old the finer details as to what really goes on out of view. Thanks a million.
Just the info I was looking for. It was one of those things I couldn't get my head around, what goes where and why/how. I finally get the physics of how all the parts work, thank you.
Thank you very much! This video was incredibly helpful! I'm working on a clutch now and noticed it wasn't worn down terribly but I wasn't getting clutch release. Now I know why. People like you make the world a better place. I hope you continue with the videos. Thank you!!
One of the best explanations of the drivetrain function for the novice to the experienced. Sometimes techs now how to replace parts very well but now idea how it actually works. Chapeau to you sire for taking time out of your busy day to upload.
It's so beautiful when it's brand new and clean like that. Great video thank you
Excellent video! Taught two of my three sons how to drive manual, this video helped them understand the mechanics and made the experience less painful for me. 😉thanks!
You are a great teacher! I just ordered your Muncie DVD book combo yesterday and after watching this I am even more excited than I already was to receive it. You have a great way of engaging the viewer and explaining things. I learned a lot.
Thanks for the great compliments and thanks for purchasing the book and DVD.
WoW, I replaced my clutch in an AX-15 3 times, OReilly swears it was that right one. It measured about 1/4 short. Its his first car and the info you provided was priceless. Sure wish you would do a video on an AX-15. Thank you so much.
This is probably the best video on understanding the basics of this stuff - well done!
A nerd like me can understand how clutch work by watching this, thank you so much!
The only video on UA-cam that explains in simple terms how a manual transmission/clutch works.
Long live GrarBoxVideo👍
Nice 👍 job
Hi
One of the best vids on YT explaining clutches. I consider myself pretty knowledgeable about cars and I still learned new stuff. Thanks!
Great instruction Paul, you saved me time and money. I did a clutch replacement years ago on my back in the garage WITHOUT a spline indexing tool. THAT took a while with 90 pounds of Muncie layin on my chest. Fast fwd to today, I had forgotten some of the critical steps but now I'm up to date with your help.
10/10 for information. Really liked the info on the lightweight flywheel! Keep it up
Thank you so much..I'm a marine engineer so when i went for my oral exams i couldn't explain how a pneumatic Hydraulic clutch for a schottel works, and they said i should just explain how a car clutch workss....i was even more lost and i failed my exams...come next time I'll be ready!! Thank you
This is such an exhaustively detailed video! Thank You Paul for such an amazing & informative video on the working of the clutch.
God Bless you mate!
One of the best basic videos I have come across. I was looking for a video to show my grandson how a clutch works so I can teach him how to drive a standard transmission. when I was a kid (100 years ag) everybody learned on a standard. I think it helps to see how a clutch operates in order to learn how to use it.
I've been driving standard transmissions all my life and never really knew the mechanics of a clutch. Thanks for the vid.
This is a very good explanation, with very appropriate mechanical parts. Thanks a lot, very helpful.
Thanks Paul. Fantastic explanation especially the clutch hub dissection. I'd never seen that. Bravissimo!
+Mario Dalla Riva Thanks for watching!
Very informative and very demonstrative. Many people looking for this kind of information understand better when they're being shown how it works versus being told how it's supposedly works. Thanks for the great video
Excellent video Paul! I learned some things I didn't know that I didn't know about clutch design and what can go wrong. Nicely and clearly explained. Interesting to see what a 1950s Ferrari clutch was like.
Well explained, thanks so much!
Very nicely explained!! Got a clear picture in my head after looking at the video ! You really know what you are talking about!
Wow, I have been driving manuals for 30+ years and finally understand exactly how the clutch actually works. Thank You. the way you have explained it with the visual really makes it seem a lot more easier to understand.
Just found your vids. Just rebuilding my VW transmission. Had a defective diagfragm/membrane spring all way long for 60.000km. Always wondered why reverse was always chewing a bit. Now I know a lot more! Keep up the good work and videos ;) Hope to learn even more in the future!
Very descriptive explanation. Thanks for sharing God bless you.
This has to be one of the best automotive educational videos I've ever seen. It's clear you understand the science and physics behind clutch technology and are able to relate it to a novice like me. Great stuff. When I get done watching this I'll be looking to see if you have any automatic trans videos. Thanks GBV!
I'm going on my second year of successfully driving my TKO-600 (in my 67 7.0L fastback grocery getter) after watching your video on how to take it apart, service it, and put it back together. I've always wondered what purpose those springs served in the clutch disc. And now I know! Thank you for this video!
Brilliant video. At last, a really comprehensive and clear explanation of how a typical car clutch works. Thank you!!
Great video Paul. I do a lot of my own car repair work but transmissions are something that I've never had the opportunity to work on. Even though I had a basic understanding of how a clutch works I have a much better understanding of it now because of your video.
Thank you
Love your channel, and of course the Rammstein intro music!
Great video , I was planning on a lightweight flywheel for my v6 mustang , the explanation about the inertia and chatter is something I have never heard before, good info.
This gentleman is an expert, I can stay all day long listening what's he's explaining.
Thank you
Thank you very much sir.for the good explanation and for good illustrating the ideas for each part of the clutch assembly.
Accept my regards from Iraq.
After adjusting the shifter linkage to factory specifications, reducing the play in the clutch pedal so that the release bearing makes firmer contact with the pressure plate diaphragm fingers to disengage the clutch disc and renewing the transmission fluid with Pennzoil Synchromesh my A833 works like a dream. So I got to thank you Paul for this fantastic tutorial because man does it feel good to fix it yourself, feels awesome.
That's what it is all about! Thank you.
Anthony Murphy where is the speedometer sensor for a volvo 2000 v40 4.0
GearBoxVideo where is the speedometer sensor for a volvo 2000 v40 4.0
Question. With the firmer contact of the release bearing with the diaphragm fingers, is the release bearing turning whenever the car is moving (whenever the clutch is engaged) (whenever your foot is off the clutch) and you are driving down the road. If so, how long will the release bearing last?
Thank you! Very educational. Knowledge is power as they say. Understanding how things work, help troubleshoot problems and eliminate replacing unnecessary parts.
Great video! Thoroughly explained clutch mechanics and relation to transmission. Thanks Paul!!! 😎
God I love listening to this guy, makes me feel like I'm home!
Thank you.. Now i understand much better !!!
Wow. Super video!!! Well explained!!!! Got so much more info and illustrations than I was looking for. Wish I could work with this guy even for a short while. Keep it up man. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Brilliant, informative, simple, straight to the point and exciting! Thank you sir!
What a great video indeed. Thanks
Thank you

good explanation
Very informative. I wasn’t aware that the pilot bushing could grab the input shaft that way. Cheers.
We only use oil impregnated bushings. Never a roller
@@GearBoxVideo What is acceptable clearance on the diameter of pilot shaft to bushing ID? Is .010" too much (for an oil lite bushing)?
Another great video. The way you explain things makes them very easy to understand and gives nice insight. Thanks!
This is really a good video on the whole clutch working. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, especially on showing the various clutch assemblies.
What a great video! Much more than I was expecting to learn, and those old Ferrari components were really cool to see!
+ArtemiaSalina Thanks a bunch for watching.
I just eliminated yet another comment comparing a squeak my chair makes to flatulence. While we all enjoy a little sophomoric humor on occasion, this is an educational channel, and I prefer to keep the comments more Q & A focused. If you are looking for something more bathroom-humor oriented, perhaps Pewdiepie? Thanks for your cooperation.
GearBoxVideo great video explaining things in detail people can really learn from this

Hi, i'm from Argentina and just want to say THANKS, your explanations are so detail that makes me understand much better how it work. The knowledge is something precious and you give us so much, thanks (sorry for my english i need more practice)
No problem, Django...your command of English is actually pretty good considering it's not your primary language...no apology necessary.
+wannawatchu66 kkekjiei
I’d just like to say your videos are great and very informative,i live in the uk and have already bought your book ready to tackle a 3rd gear shift problem on my cosworth t5 keep up the good work 👍
8:35 finally ! Someone explains it. This video is a goldmine of information.
Gold Standard must-watch video.
Hi, thanks for sharing your videos....Is good to know someone like you explain with details..... and we can understand more clear..... thanks....
Question...... when a transmission is not working well.....what's the part's name.....I forgot....thank... u...
Excelent
The springs always had me confused on the plate itself, no longer! Cheers!
Thanks for the info! Much appreciated. Had some clutch release problems in my 72 monte and this helped me fix it. cheers
Thank you so much, great explanation... I learn so much from your videos, I watch multiple times, I keep learning the more I watch, thanks for being so generous...
very cool video i learned alot
thank you.
oooooooooh that song at the beginning shows you have good taste for music.
Rammstein 🤟🏻
@@kurts7268 is that who that is? Awsome! If you tell me what song you can save me a ton of video searching😁
I liked the pinch harmonic over the electronic stuff. Like techno metal.
Such a great, clear, thorough, concise explanation
You have the best explanation,and physically show the mechanics of operations thank you very much
Love the Rammstein intro
Excellent explanation 😊!
I randomly picked this video and realized that it was amazing. Thank u so much, sir!!
A very beautiful illustration of how a clutch works. Thanks
"...Hope you like it," Paul says. "Of course we're gunna like it!"
I'd rather watch Paul talk about gears and clutches and rear ends than the Superbowl.
Im in school and this quarter is transmissions 😢
No matter how much time it takes; figure it out, get your brain wrapped around it. There's money to be made in that business and if you get it; you'll enjoy it. Do the (home) work, invest the time in the books. It'll be worth it for sure!
You're the man , very well explanation on the clutch plate springs and clutch hub assembly all revited together. Loose springs and worn hub could result in shudder as the plate runs out of circle when the clutch is released. Very informative and very well done for showing others how it actually works. Great job sir.
This is so amazing.. didn't have a single clue about all this stuff up until this moment.
Rammstein yes
Great Instructional Video Paul. Its the best I've seen. Thanks
Thank you for taking the time to educate!! I learned a lot!!
Stunning video! Really nice to see the machine elements you study in books explained in action!
Liked and subbed!
Most informative and detailed illustration of clutches functions and components I have ever seen👍
Excellent clutch video. Shared this with my Pop and a few buddies. Well done.
No kidding, He really makes it easy for even those that have never done any automotive work. Good one Paul.
Thanks, i always wondered what those springs were for. Great video, loved the detail.
Thank you for your willingness to educate we, who need it!!!
thanks you for the lesson on how the clutch system works keep up the great work thank you , I will keep on watching !
This was very clear and easy to understand, thank you Paul.
First time I ever ran across your channel. Wow! You really know your stuff and you teach it well! Thanks
That made so much sense, it inspires me to take on these devices myself, thanks!
So much great information, thank you sir. I'll be picking up your book to rebuild my Muncie and Hurst comp shifter in my 66 Chevelle.
Thank you for an excellent video, i am doing my own clutch plate change over, and this helps me a lot to better understand the operation.
That was a very nice video. Great photography and commentary. I really learnt a lot from it. Thank you for the time and effort you put into that.
Thanks very much for taking the time to record and upload the video.It helps a lot when you can see how all the parts work together in sync rather than just being told.Now all the “can’t find it so grind it” drivers ,reverse gear especially noise I have heard down through the years now makes me cringe even more that I am a little more enlightened.
Fantastic, I've never find such a demostrative real party vedio on any automobile part on UA-cam.
Thanks a ton 👍👍✌️
What a fantastic video. You break it down so well and explain what every little thing does. I find myself watching other videos and going okay but what does that thing that you just touched do 🙂. Thanks again this video was awesome
