The best way to minimize wear on your thrust washers is to use the clutch sparingly--put the car in neutral and take your foot off of the clutch rather than leaving the car in gear and pressing the c

Good tip! Of course, I always started the car with the clutch in. Why? I didn't want to put the extra wear on the starter. Why should the starter have to turn the trans over as well as the engine? I

Why should the starter have to turn the trans over as well as the engine? If the trans is in neutral, you're not turning over much at all. By putting your foot on the clutch, you add the stress of tu

Most of time this is true, but it is turning over the input shaft and gears in the trans. This could be a considerable load, say if it was quite cold out, and the trans oil is thick. Start your car o

I think it depends a great deal on the car and construction. I first started thinking about this when we got our Ferrari - there it's a very noticable difference. The car doesn't want to be started w

Agreed, the gearbox is a higher load than a normal release bearing. But it really doesn't matter that much as long as the car *does* start. One might use the clutch only in very cold weather, for ins

and then later about using GL4 spec if it is an overdrive gearbox. Do you have any actual experience using synthetic gear oil in the Triumph gearboxes with the Laycock DeNormanville overdrives? I onc

I have used synthetic Mobil GL4 for the last six to seven years in my Triumph 2.5 PI. I use the car every day, summer as well as (fairly hard) norwegian winter. Despite a 150 bhp engine (TR5 spec) an
