Is the torque converter clutch a wet clutch?
The torque converter clutch is, of course, a wet clutch and basic knowledge of this kind of clutch is im- portant in developing transmission systems. Typical problems, such as shudder, only occur at relatively high mileage levels.
Do you use a torque converter or clutch in a go kart?
You’ll most likely come across go-karts that use a torque converter or a clutch, as a transmission. When it comes to transmissions, there is a long-standing battle between torque converters and clutches. There is no doubt that both of these transmissions have their own benefits.
What kind of torque converter do I need for my Manitowoc Crane?

What happens when the torque converter is disengaged?
When the clutch is disengaged, the torque converter allows the engine to rotate without stalling. While the vehicle is slowing and approaching a stop, the TCC’s application is undesirable. Like the clutch on a manual transmission, it causes the vehicle to stall. The clutch plate contains a spring and hydraulically controlled pistons.

How does the torque converter clutch solenoid work?
The torque converter clutch solenoid measures the pressure of the transmission fluid. It also regulates the amount of fluid reaching the lockup clutch. As a result of this, when the solenoid becomes damaged, it begins to give the required fluid’s wrong measures. This effect causes abnormal and, in some cases, erratic fluid pressures.
Are there any problems with the torque converter?
Take a second from time to time to inspect the torque converter for visible problems like fluid levels, pressures and clutch adjustment to catch potential problems before they exist, but know that we’re here for you when more serious problems arise.
