Scariest moment of my life in regards to driving a car or truck.. this "experiment" ended up begin something completely different.. Thank GOD I'm alive
My 1994 Ford Ranger, AKA the "Danger Ranger" was on another mission for the channel to figure out what happens if you shift a manual transmission WITHOUT using the clutch.. We did the "experiment" but what ended up happening in the end was not part of the plan at all as the brake lines gave out and I was stuck going down a road at 55mph with no brakes at all! Thank god that it was a calm day with no traffic and no one was hurt including myself.

Some advice for if this happens to you, the handbrake (e-brake, parking brake, whatever you wanna call it) is almost always cable operated, not hydraulic, so if your pedal isn't working, the handbrake usually will. If it's an electronic parking brake, pull the button and hold it, the car will register that you need an emergency stop and will apply the parking brake (still cable operated, just by a solenoid instead) ***Apply it SLOWLY though, otherwise you'll lock the wheels and spin out*** Source: Have had to use this to save my life. ETA: Before you all say "well that didn't work for him", please note my *almost*. In an emergency situation, always at least try.

@JohnD-JohnD 7 месяцев назад

Things that he did wrong. 1. Took seatbelt off. 2. Tried shifting into R. 3. Work your way down the gears if you have room on the road to get it down in speed. Don't go from 4th/5th into 1st or second when trying to slow down that way. What would you have done if you blew that clutch by not down shifting correctly? Also ignored the signs. Last video you mentioned the parking brake wasn't working and showed the bad condition of the brakes.

@DavidB445 2 года назад

Having had a brake line failure before, it can be a pretty scary experience. Luckily I was only doing maybe 20MPH where 2 minutes before that I was doing ~70MPH. Shifting without the clutch is not as hard as it sounds, it's all about rev-matching. Lift your foot off the throttle and pull it into neutral then apply some pressure on the next gear, don't try to force it, it'll fall into gear once the revs drop. If it doesn't go in and the revs drop too far, just blip the throttle and apply pressure to the next gear. Downshifting can be trickier as you need to blip the throttle to get the revs at or above where it needs to be for that gear. Getting into reverse on the other hand will be almost impossible while your moving forwards.

@joeski1112 2 года назад

@-aid4084 10 месяцев назад

@@joeski1112semis have a different transmission than a standard syncromesh transmission, so it's quite different. shifting without the clutch in a syncromesh transmission will damage the syncros, for as long as you try to force a gear when the rpm isn't right. Eventually you can pop it into that gear and the syncro won't work anymore because you've lost that gear. Usually semi transmissions have straight cut gears without a syncromesh, and you can still do the same thing where you chip away at the gears because you don't have a syncromesh for as long as the rpm isn't right. But if you damage those gears enough, you will loose that gear. semis will have redundant gears, and this is so that if a gear were to eventually go out you can live without it. In both cases, rev matching and applying very light pressure(only enough for it to pop in once the rpm is matched) on the gear stick is how you shift without the clutch being depressed. too much pressure and you're grinding those gears/meshes.

@-aid4084 10 месяцев назад

@@joeski1112 the reason for straight cut gears instead of helical gears is because of the amount of torque that goes through them. helical gears produce a thrust load, decreasing efficiency and requiring a beefier and heavier transmission with bearings to handle it. with straight cut, there is no loss in thrust load, with the drawback of less overall contact patch between gears, so it introduces some slop on and off throttle and limits the maximum "theoretical" power transferable. With the straight cut, you can also choose to forego the entire syncromeshes to make the transmission lighter and less complex, therefore cheaper to maintain and repair. Some semi transmissions can have up to 18+ gears, so an extra 18 syncromeshes adds up quickly in extra cost and weight.

He wasnt thinking and was in full panic mode. 1) Removed Seatbelt instead of keeping it on. 2) Tried going into reverse instead of shifting to a lower gear, even though you know manual cars have that advantage to slow down or come to a stop by downshifting. We all will do stupid mistakes in panic mode unless we are prepaired/traine for those situations. Luckly nothing bad happened but im sure he will learn from his mistakes.

I think he agrees with you as we all do however, I suspect it's some sort of instinctual reaction knowing that it is a decrepid hoopty and the seatbelt is "restricting" his movement or thinking in case he has to take matters into his own hands. It's a small truck, so there could have even been an ounce of instinct that he could somehow physically stop it with his feet or body in some way.

@edwardsr70 2 года назад

You don't downshift into reverse when you lose your brakes Mike. You downshift into a lower gear particularly depending on the gear youre in you skip a gear so if you was in 5th gear youd go to 3rd then to 1st gear to start reving the engine into higher rpms and you'll slow down by engine braking. Automatics have those gears available for such a situation as well. 😀

As a UK viewer (where we have a lot of manual cars), I can confirm it’s pretty simple as long as the revs match. Just put a little pressure on the gear stick and it pops in as the revs drop. You can also change down but need to blip the throttle. I once drove a Volvo 850 T5 140 miles without a clutch after the slave cylinder went. You’ll never get reverse though, especially without synchromesh.

Damn! Glad your ok man. Quick story: my first car was a 67 Volkswagen beetle Baja, little hopped up. Was driving down a side road with a buddy and going probably 65 mph in a 25 zone. came up to a 90 degree curve and when I hit the brake the pedal it went straight to the floor! I was well into third gear and top of second is basically 50-55mph. thought I should down shift ‘cause engine breaking should slow me down significantly but I guess because I was going so much faster than the gear was intended for and I didn’t have the engine revved up, when I let the clutch out hard it just locked up the rear tires! So now I’m in the turn probably still going over 50 miles an hour with the rear tires completely locked up in a very short wheel base vehicle. I attempted to counter steer to keep it in the turn without just spinning out completely (which I think helped a little but inevitably that rear end was coming around no matter what I did). The car did finally come to a stop on the other side of the curve but I had spun completely around to face the wrong direction. I also hit the curb bending my rim slightly. The whole time my friend was laughing his head off because he thought I was playing around 😂😂🤣. Moral of the story…. always make sure that your braking system is functioning properly and up to par mine definitely that time was not in good shape.

Shifting without clutch is actually easier in newer cars in my experience, the smaller the engine the easier as far as i tried. The sweetspot is to accelerate to 4000 rpm, and than pull it out of gear. Just slightly push it to the next gear and it should just slide in between 3000 and 2000rpm while its dropping. It goes the other way around as well with shifting downward, so for example from 4th to 3th. Pull it out. Press the accelerator and watch the rpms drop till 3000/2000 rpm and lean it in 3th.

@TheRightApex 2 года назад

You can actually shift a manual transmission without a clutch but it is very tricky. You have to go from in gear to neutral and then into the next gear quickly. The other variable is the RPM's must be at the correct RPM to match the engine and transmission together. Usually if you put pressure onto the transmission and you'll eventually feel it slip into gear. Which is what is happening on the 3rd to 4th gear it sounds like. This is called "Slip Shifting"

Downshifting from an appropriate gear makes a brake failure less dramatic. Manual transmission vehicles are much safer for this reason, you don't really need brakes when you have a Manual. But either way you still managed to keep it under control for the most part and thats all that really matters here.

I remember when I was a kid back in early 90s, - my dad was driving, we were going through a very steep mountain range in Australia (Busy, main route) buses, semi trailer trucks Non stop. While driving - All of a sudden we smelt an awful smell, the car revs.... the car is not going any further up the hill.... oh no... The clutch worn out... thankfully, we pulled to the side, then we had the chance for the car to roll down the hill to a wider/space area. We flagged others for assistance (no phone coverage nor 📱back then... Only CB radios I believe for communications for lorry trucks Etc. Cheers ❤

If funny that when you realized you lost the brakes, the first thing you did was to remove you safety belt. 😂

I haven't laughed out loud to a video in a long time. My family asked why I was laughing, I told them there's a guy driving who's brakes failed with panic face and hitting a guardrail. They didn't get the humor. Cool video, Mike!

Had this happen to me while driving to work in my '95 Bronco named Tank. Was driving on US-114 westbound approaching US-377 in Roanoke when my brakes lost all pressure. Foot would go to the floor with absolutely minimal braking power. I managed to use my E-brake to slowdown/stop for the next 7 miles until I got to work at Alliance Airport. Had her towed and as soon as the shop got my truck on a lift and took my wheels off, the entire drum brake assembly completely fell off my truck.
