yes it does smell like its burning but another way to know is if your clutch does not feel like there is as much pressure when you push down on the petal yes it does smell like its burning but another way to know is if your clutch does not feel like there is as much pressure when you push down on the petal
If you clutch and it either goes all the way in with no pressure there is a leak in your slave cylinder or the higher you have to clutch means your clutch is sliping and has to be replaced. If your doing a lot of power shifting i would suggest you get a racing clutch instead.
what is the job of a one-way clutch
Either the machine does not "know" or the clutch/brake switch is bad. Either way it is a safety switch
The transmission has to come out to replace the clutch. This is defiantely not a job you want to try for yourself unless you know your way around transmissions and drive axles.
Don't know what kind of vehicle you have but a thermostat housing and the clutch are not connected in any way. Need more info.
Slipping of the clutch and a peculiar smell are the first signs of a clutch that is worn out.
There are various ways through which you can know when your clutch is bad. When you are having troubles shifting gears, this might be a clear indication of a clutch problems.
The same way you use a motorcycle clutch.
If by "out" you mean "burned out".....the answer is: when you've adjusted the 'play' on the clutch cable/lever assembly all the way in or out and still can't get power from the engine to the rear wheel, the clutch is likely burned out.
Best way is to just float the gears - shift without using the clutch. However, if you do this wrong, you'll destroy your transmission. If you use the clutch when shifting, firstly, you double clutch - try shifting it like a car transmission, and you destroy the transmission. If you don't know how to do this, go to a truck driving school. When you shift, only push in the clutch far enough to disengage the transmission - don't go all the way to the floor with it, or else you'll wear out the clutch break. Don't roll out of gear with the clutch depressed.
Just make the clutch pads line up with the clutch disk. the pressure plate can only go on one way due to the positioning dowels
