At the point of clutch engagement, the speed ratio of the drive clutch to the driven clutch is 3.5 to 1. This ratio
provides excellent starting and low-speed torque.
As engine speed increases, centrifugal force on internal weights close the drive clutch, pushing the belt up to
a higher position on the clutch (increasing the diameter of the belt loop). As the diameter of the belt loop
increases at the drive clutch, the driven clutch is forced open as the diameter of its belt loop decreases. At
governed top speed, the ratio of drive clutch to driven clutch is .92 to 1.
On steep grades, or when the vehicle is heavily loaded, higher torques are achieved through the use of a
torque-sensing ramp device on the driven clutch. This device overcomes the force of the centrifugal weights
to close the driven clutch and open the drive clutch, thus increasing axle torque with little or no change in
engine RPM.
The engine and torque converter rotate clockwise as viewed from the clutch side of the engine.
To provide optimum performance for the OHV engine and powertrain, the vehicle uses a pair of tuned
clutches.
To properly assemble and disassemble the torque converter, the following tools should be used:
• Torque Converter Tool Kit (CCI 1014510) (Figure 17-1, Page 17-2).
• Scribe or small pick (not included in torque converter tool kit).
