Float or Double Clutching.

Having quite mastered double clutching, but I'm pretty #### good. I single clutch a lot. Been trying out floating here lately.

 

Vote Float.
D/C is taught in training and you should be proficient in either, but floating, imo, is much better for less clutch wear, and simplicity.

 

You cant really single clutch a non synchronized trans. if your single clutching your probably half floating. You prob floating out then doing the second part of the double clutch to get it in.

Floating or Double clutching is acceptable, just try to reduce grinding and forcing in as much as possible. Theoretically, double will wear out your clutch faster but a poor float will damage your trans faster. I double when i have a real hard shift, but mostly float. If you need to force it into gear your at the wrong rpm and are slightly damaging the trans.

 

Less clutchware yes, but a poor float will add to trans wear. Doubel gives you more room for error on matching your rpm with the road speed.

 

Some companies want you to double-clutch.
Once you leave the terminal, do what is more comfortable for you.
I vote for float!

 

Very true & I agree. Poor floating is definitely bad on trans parts.
When I earlier stated that one should be 'proficient' in either, my "either" was intended to mean "both".
