Automatic Trans Question

how does fluid get to the clutch i'm confused about this i know it pass through the valve body then where does it go

What clutch?

The Fluid clutches just like the one for my overdrive gear

if its a automatic there is a pump on the front of the transmission that is driven by the torque convertor snout. the pump forces the fluid around inside the transmission to all the parts and clutches as needed

Thanks CRvette69, took 2 moderators to answer that one, clutch, not clutches. LOL

well i ment is it like a engine bearing with passages set up or what i know it has a pump but

well i found a well apointed diagram of the pump the whole clutch assembly that described exsactly what i was talking about a few mintutes ago it took 3 months of searching but i final found it, howstuff works just told me that the clutches r pressurize by fluid but how the fluid got to the clutches that was important to me

thanks for the help u gave me the keywords to search so thanks

howstuff works just told me that the clutches r pressurize by fluid but how the fluid got to the clutches that was important to me

The last sentence in the link I provided said, "The pressure for the clutches is fed through passageways in the shafts. "

Just sayin....
