How to Control the Clutch When Driving?
1 Answers
To control the clutch when driving: use the heel of your left foot as a pivot point, place the ball of your foot on the clutch pedal, and press or release it by moving your ankle and knee. The clutch is located within the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission, secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws. The output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. Methods for maintaining the clutch include: 1. Disassemble to remove oil stains or rust from the friction plates, driving plates, and pressure plate inside the clutch, and clean them thoroughly with gasoline; 2. Minimize clutch pedal usage to prevent clutch slippage and plate burning; 3. Replace the friction plates if rivet heads, cracks, breakage, or extensive scorching are observed; 4. Ensure the clutch is thoroughly cleaned before installation, removing any anti-rust grease and debris.
