How manual transmission works. By: Kunal C.

[117nathanmyers]

I think you did a good job explaining.

[MrTaxiwala]

U r making it more difficult to understand than it actually is

[golliaf86]

нихера не понятно

[fokkermanjensen]

this guy needs to chill the fuck out

[import0408]

Not a very instructional video

[sleephero92]

Good vid helped me understand a lot. But i agree with someone else go a little slower next time

[lafcadiothelion]

don't become a teacher!

[ChauhanK93]

@lafcadiothelion I plan on being an Engineer actually.

[mykatamari]

Sloppy

[HSGOfi]

ohh now i got it!!! would really help if you explain a bit slower and maybe show the neutral also beacause everytime you're in neutral you can't see that really but good vid!

[GueVonez]

god dammm this shit is genius when you think about it

[jeefleeyuiling]

he say that (her,her,her,her..) so what is he talking about..??

this technical too badd.?? her..her..her........

[Awsomevideos2012]

Maybe your 2000 civic needs a transmission oil change! I am not a qualified machanic i could be wrong but it might be something as simple as a tranmission oil change. Take it to a qualified mechanic and feel free to ask such a question! I always work on my own cars and I usually just ask mechanics what could cause the problems I'm having and what is the cheapest solution. Good luck!

[ilovejdm9]

myy 00 civic transmission grinds on 3rd bt only in high rpms is tht bad ?

[djlaiguana1]

Damm it, well thanks buddy 4r ur help...lol

[djlaiguana1]

Hi Buddy, I have a 93 ford Truck E-350 1 Ton Econoline - Van and something happened with the transmission (automatic), full fluid level its OK but when into 1 and 2 .... the truck runs good but for 3rd and 4th the RPMs go up and up (foot on gas accelerating), but the truck doesn't speed up .... i'm stuck on 1st and 2nd...

-Solenoid problem ?

-Should I reset by disconnecting battery ?

-No OD light flashes in dashboard.

-No ''CHECK ENGINE'' light.

Thanks for any help ...

[FrankHurtAuto]

@djlaiguana1 sounds like worn clutch plates for 3 and 4. Rbuild or used Transmission.

[ssj4goko4]

@djlaiguana1 or it needs a tps. i had a e250 started having all kinds of shifting problems not slipping but delayed shift etc. and that was what was causing it for me.

[dionacademia]

NoProofOfHell...you might want to try bleeding your slave cylinder. If there is any air in the system, it will compress(just as it would in a brake line), instead of pushing the fluid to engage or disengage the clutch plate. Procedures for doing so are similar to those for a brake fluid flush, except for the fact that you would pump the clutch instead of the brake.

[NoProofOfHell]

I have a 1999 mustang v6 manual. It's hard to shift into gear especially 1st from a dead stop. Once I get going it's easier but still tuff and if I lag a little between shifts it's easier as well. Down shifting is easy.

There is no grinding, chirping, or any noise, it's just a pain in the...to engage the gears. The clutch pedal is stiff but seems to work ok. Not sure what type of clutch but it does have a short shifter. Just acquired car.

Help is appreciated.

[FrankHurtAuto]

@NoProofOfHell You can try what "dionacademia" has suggested. A good indication of air in the system would be low fluid in clutch master cylinder. My guess would be a worn clutch.

[NoProofOfHell]

@FrankHurtAuto Im no mechanic by any means....is the clutch on a 1999 mustang connected to a cable? Would that have anything to do with my issue?

The fluid you are talking about, does that refer to hydraulic clutches.

[FrankHurtAuto]

@NoProofOfHell I looked on AllData and your mustang has a cable for clutch, not hydraulic. Most of the ford clutch cables are adjusted by pulling up on the clutch padel, try.

[aaron67vannistelrooy]

dodgi camera man

[ydna2]

Nice work

[dmfan1981]

Ha, I didn't understand one thing. What car is this gearbox from? The input and output shaft is the same! Usually the flywheel mounts on the lower shaft.But here, as I understood, there are 2 parts of the upper shaft.On the fourth speed these 2 parts are blocked, so the ratio is 1, and we don't need lower shaft when fourth speed is on...Very interesting))))

[InsaneBulldozer]

Brilliant, thank you for posting this! Gearboxes have always been a bit mysterious to me but now I understand. Now to watch the video explaining the clutch.

[VidsYouMustSee]

Stupid camera man. Zoom out a little bit.

[LaRutte]

very useful vid, thanks!

[mba2ceo]

Great job ... might U show us an auto transmission also ... thanks

[W00DBar0n]

Do one on an unsynchronized double counter shaft 5 speed transmission with a 3 speed auxiliary.

[FrankHurtAuto]

@W00DBar0n the day we get our hand on one, we will try. Remember all videos on "frankhurtauto" are made by 16 year old high school students.

[MrTinflo]

great video

[timpa666]

thank you man you helped me alot !

[jedi760]

good vid....thanks



[016632]

i want to make a transmission like this for a go kart

[FrankHurtAuto]

@016632 I would use a 70cc motorbike with transmission for that.

[016632]

@FrankHurtAuto i want stick shift though

[FrankHurtAuto]

@016632 It will still have a stick shift as the bike transmission is manual and will have a clutch and a shifter. watch our web grewal. wikispaces. com go under metal worl and then go carts.

[harold31415]

Why is the 5th gear "outside" the box?

[FrankHurtAuto]

@harold31415 The 5th gear is not outsied, there is suppose to be casing around it as well.

[bigwillybiker]

How do i put this on paper???

[FrankHurtAuto]

@bigwillybiker check out a lesson under auto 12 on my website "grewal.wikispaces"

[bigwillybiker]

@FrankHurtAuto Thanks! assignment finished :)

[IIBANGII]

well, i didn't understand that when the gear on N  the "caner shift 0:35 "gears still moving !!?

[yanivoff]

hi there, can anybody explain about 4th gear, He said only that "it is 4th gear" but didn't show where it is connected like he showed previous connections.

Tnx

[FrankHurtAuto]

@yanivoff try watching our video on how synchromesh works. This transmission has 1;1 gear ratio for 4th gear. In 4th gear synchromesh collar (attached to output shaft), engages with 4th gear (attached to input shaft) making it a direct drive. Means what ever RPM the flywheel is turning, the driveshaft is turning at the same speed.

[danielgardiner81]

Watching this video im not so happy to hear my gf grind my gears anymore :p

[damianalcarazjr]

Not bad dude!

[mechanic7866]

this helps so so much

[freeruner5]

thank god somebody came up with a lever to change the gears, imagine if you had to do it manually, -Jake second gear please. -Done, - Third -Done -Fourth....Fourth please...Jake!,

-I can't, I got an arrow in a knee, -what? -joking, i just lost my fingers

[thehossman1]

SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWW DOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWNN there guy! Gearing depends on the transmission. Richmound Gear's Street 5 speed does in fact have a 1:1 ratio 5th, it is not over driven. GM's T56 is double over drive, so 5th AND 6th gear are over drive. Next time you make a cut-away model, you should cut a little less away.

[johndeereman567]

pretty good explanation i understand it 100%

[janj0n]

Not real well done, but if you already know how a manual transmission works, you can follow his explanation.

[charlietow]

dang he sucks at demonstrating

[babybackribification]

thanks for the video!

[ledzurso]

Thank you! That was a very thorough and careful explanation for a non mechanic like myself!

[Dmath20]

Great Video Man. I appreciate it. I'm doing an engineering project and couldn't do it without you.

[BlueRice]

the funny part is that i actually understand your explaining.

[MrYATHATSMYNAME]

this was really helpful thank you very much

[maxbhupi]

thanx buddy...

[geordo2001]

I can see why transmissions are so expensive. Lots of tough precision machined components.

[geordo2001]

Good video describing a very difficult and complicated process. Well done!

[jburgie]

This isn't easy to explain in 8 minutes, and he does a great job with a complicated subject.

[DriftKing41091]

I never knew how a manual trans worked. I only knew how to drive one :P I'm glad I clicked on this video b/c I learned how a manual trans works :)

[cbrrx7]

3rd gear is direct drive,not fifth.

[FrankHurtAuto]

@cbrrx7 Actually on a five speed, third gear ratio is 1.51:1; fouth gear ratio is 1:1, and fifth gear ratio is 0.87:1. In this case 4th gear is direct drive. Our mistake if the student has said third gear is direct drive.

[TomeOfKnowledge74]

I'm just starting to learn about cars. Found your real-world (non-animation) explanation very informative.  Thanks!

[FrankHurtAuto]

@abcd19263 When car takes off it needs more torque and less speed, that's when a small gear spins a larger gear. As the car speeds up it doesn't need that much force to move, hence at high speeds a larger gear spins a smaller gear givind more speed with lower torque. Hope this helps.

[astrodogdog]

I appreciate the effort, but worst demonstration I've ever seen. We get a good look into the transmission but still you manage to not show anything useful.

[MisterModder123]

So basically, the higher the ratio, the larger the torque/lower speeds, and the lower the ratio, the lower amounts of torque/higher speeds?

[FrankHurtAuto]

@MisterModder123 For example when the car is in first gear, a small gear drives a large gear which gives high torque with low speed. hopefully this helps. For further info you can visit @ grewal.wikispaces

[essboarder23]

just wanted to say thanks so much.

been trying to understand engines, transmission, and double clutch (heel toe), and thanks to ur vid/explanation, i get it all now

[essboarder23]

Is the purpose of the counter shaft to transfer the energy from the input shaft to the specific gear?

And when a gear is engaged, what happens to the other gears (are they freely spinning so the camshaft is not transferring energy to them)???

[FrankHurtAuto]

@essboarder23 The output shaft is always locked on to the synchro gears. Depending on which gear the synchro gear is locked on to, the vehicle will be in that gear.

[dehaj2425]

this is cool, but I want a video that explains this in laymen terms. What exactly changes when you shift? I get there are pieces that move back and forth, but in each gear all of the gears are still moving. So what changes.

[dehaj2425]

@dehaj2425 Wait, I shoulda kept watching, I believe I get it now. It's unbelievable how simple, but yet extremely complex a manual transmission is.

[marcvh92]

@dehaj2425 Every time the input shaft moves, the output shaft moves as well except for when they are disengaged (neutral). When you shift into first gear, the input shaft engages a specific gear with a specific gear on the output shaft; all other gears remain disengaged, but move along with the input/output shaft. Hope that answers your question.

[Rick1885]

Makes my head hurt. And I have to learn about this stuff pretty soon. Oh boy!

[slantyboy]

why is the 5th gear so special and outside of the housing?

it seems to me that it's just another gear like 1234.

thanks for the education

[FrankHurtAuto]

@slantyboy There is another housing that goes over 5th, reverse and worm gear and they are submerged in oil just like the other gears.

[dmolition123]

awesome video man, thanks a lot I finally understand.

[abuladula]

Excellent mechanic, poor camera ma, use a tripod.

Plus would be great if you could have a gear box connected to a gear shaft. But still a great video.

[SuperTreyone]

shitty camera work

[Gian092]

Isn't the 4th gear that gives the ~1:1 ratio?

[FrankHurtAuto]

@Gian092 Yup 4th gear does give 1:1 ratio.

[FrankHurtAuto]

@Gian092 1st gear 4.3:1; 2nd gear 5.2:1; 3rd gear 1.5:1; 4th gear 1:1,5th gear 0.87:1; and reverse 4:1.

[LHDrummer07]

From my understanding, When you shift, you don't move the gears, you decide what gear locks onto the axle. The gears are always touching. What locks in the gear, to send the power that gear recieves, to the axle it is one.

[ap0ll0k1ngs]

This is a great video,i've understood everything except the 'synchronizer' part. Kindly explain further. Thank you

[Barbralady86]

Thank you, I FINNALY UNDERSTAND!!

[jonny555deal]

after you drop the shift stick, thats when u took flight hahahahaha!!

[spartanturtle333]

great video

[zenki177]

Thanks for your time and efforts!

Great explanation.

[gonabil]

this is a real demo keep going and thanks for your time, now and only now i undertand how transmission works.

[cyberprodigy]

I would suggest remove all other videos explaining manual transmission on Youtube and leave only this one. From this guy, I sure see he knows what he is talking about and can explain very well. Thank you for putting in your time and explain it.

[istudywater]

@cyberprodigy I agree with your statement. This video is A+!

[istudywater]

Awesome video! Great job explaining everything. Keep it up!

[christiandoy]

eccetera lol

[cptchris1018]

Wow, best vid on a transmission I've seen yet. nice job man

[christhetromboneguy]

alright, nice this is great know i see

[NUMBERoneCANIAC]

Thanks so much for making this video. I've always kinda known how transmissions worked, but having a visual aid helps

[DasBootU96]

This is a very clear presentation. Still I never got to understand why it looks like the coutershaft has the same amount of turns in each gear. I really don't understand. (excuse my language, I'm Dutch)

[FrankHurtAuto]

@DasBootU96 countershaft and input shaft have different size gears, which make it spin it at different speeds.

[FutebolFanatico001]

@DasBootU96 the reason is that the counter shaft is driven by the input shaft at the far right. from there, the counter shaft always has to move the same speed with respect to the input shaft. that is because it is always driven by one gear from the input shaft and the ratio never changes. now the output shaft is the shaft that has a different rate of spin. this is due to the gears on the counter shaft and output shaft. they are the ones that change the gear ration and give a different output.

[DasBootU96]

@FutebolFanatico001: Thank you very much for your explanation! It's clear to me now. :-)

[HUSTLEBANE]

I understood most of the parts...........but im still a little confused on how reverse works. The most important part of the entire video was messed up by the camera man

[chevysid1]

@HUSTLEBANE hey man if you still need help i can try heres something simple get a piece of paper draw 3 circle in a line, up and down like a snow man the. Top one will turn( right) Middle one will turn (left) and Bottom will turn (right) pretend the middle gear is that small gear in the video for reverse did u notice that by adding that gear it changed the bottom ones output making it the same as the Top gear its all has to do with rotation well bro i hope that helps ya

[FrankHurtAuto]

@HUSTLEBANE 5:40 you see three gears. The gear on input and output shafts never touch each other. When in reverse 5:49 the third gear sits between two gears (input and out put). When input gear turns clockwise, making countershaft counterclock, Reverse gear clock and making output shaft counterclock.

[FrankHurtAuto]

@HUSTLEBANE Four gears. Input( Clock), countershaft (counterclock), reverse idelar gear (clock), and ouitput gear Couinterclock). Hence, input clockwise and output counterclockwise. Hope this helps.

[HUSTLEBANE]

@FrankHurtAuto Thanks for the insight.....i finally figured it out.

Great Video man, very helpful

[abis328]

@HUSTLEBANE

Just to add onto what he said, those things he's moving forward and back are the synchronizer assemblies. They are splined to the output shat in reverse all of the assemblies are in the neutral position but a idle gear is slid to connect the counter shaft to the output shaft. So now rather than having a direct drive from the counter shaft to the output shaft there is and idler gear inbetwee(reverse gear) which makes the output spin the same direction as the counter shaft.

[ibanez9228]

dam you explained everything better than my instructor good job man and thanks

[FutebolFanatico001]

at least u tried. i would recommend editing and adding commentary later, so ur not out of breath.
