Why is the clutch too hard?
1 Answers
Clutch being too hard refers to feeling very heavy when pressing the clutch pedal. The reason for a hard clutch may be that the pressure plate spring of the clutch is too stiff. The release bearing needs to press against the pressure plate spring of the clutch. Below is a detailed introduction about automotive clutches: Overview: The automotive clutch is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. While driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily separate and gradually engage the engine with the transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the power input from the engine to the transmission. Principle: The driving and driven parts of the clutch rely on the friction between contact surfaces, or use liquid as a transmission medium, or use magnetic transmission (electromagnetic clutch) to transmit torque, allowing temporary separation and gradual engagement between the two parts, while permitting mutual rotation during the transmission process.
