Synopsis

Freewheeling unleashes the wingpower of momentum!

So declared the colourful copy in an advertisement for 1931 Studebakers and their brand new motoring advance. At a time when most gearboxes had no synchromesh, double-declutching was the rule. It could not be rushed and made gear-shifting an unpleasant action to be avoided.

Free-wheeling or the one-way clutch made gear shifting possible without using the clutch pedal at all. Cars could coast along at cruising speeds with the engine at idle, saving fuel. However, by the late 1930s, free-wheeling was virtually gone from new-car showrooms, replaced by overdrives, synchro-mesh or vacuum-assisted gearshifts.

This book is for owners of all free-wheeled cars of the 1930s made in Britain and the United States, and those using this special feature afterwards, such as Rover and Bristol.

It covers in-depth servicing and repair of the New Process Freewheel, as used on Chrysler, De Soto, Dodge and Rover Cars and special insights on other types of free-wheels.

So whether your collection has any of these cars or whether you treasure a Lincoln, Marmon, Hupmobile or Studebaker, buy this manual and – FIX YOUR FREEWHEEL!
