A clutch is simply a connection between the engine and the transmission that can be connected and disconnected by the clutch pedal. It consists of a disc mounted to the rear of the engine, called a flywheel, and a disc mounted in the front of the transmission. When these discs are allowed to touch, the engine’s power is transmitted to the transmission. Pressing the clutch pedal down releases the clutch from the flywheel.

Clutch Fluid Flush
Clutch fluid becomes oxidized and contaminated over time and this can corrode clutch hydraulic components from the inside out. It is important to keep clutch fluid clean to add life to your clutch hydraulic system.
