Solution

Technician A is incorrect. Multiple plate clutches are often used in high performance and racing vehicles because they can transmit a large amount of torque without increasing the size or mass of the clutch.

Technician B is also incorrect. Push type clutches do use a throw out bearing. The throw out bearing is what the clutch fork pushes against to disengage the clutch.

Therefore, neither Technician A nor Technician B is correct.
