the "VARIATEUR" is an automatic gearbox... such as the "modern" scooters...
the old version vas called dimoby, just an automatic clutch, availlable either to start the engine, or working also when the engine runs faster.
the variateur is easy to see, vhen the engine is running.
at low rpm, the engine doesn't move. at high rpm, the engine turns to the rear of the moped...
here is a dimoby:

the first moped, such as the AV31 had a primary version of the "automatic clutch"...
you can start the engine, as a bicycle, by driving the bike up to 4 mph, then the cluch will start the engine.
at the red trafic light, the engine will still remain running. but if you put the throtle on, nothing will happens. (except the engine going faster)
you must drive yourself the bike up to 4 MPH, then the clutch will operate and the engine will drive you faster...
(sory for my kitchen english, I am not used to explain how a mobylette is (or was) working)
Av32, 42, 65 ?

Re: Av32, 42, 65 ?
Benoît thanks for your explanation
As I say, I mean the clutch I bought a wrong one. What I was ask if the clutch on Ebay fit to my Motor?

the green thing called 'clavette' disapears in the early 70's.
the ebay item you show should be working on a dimoby, some have 3 springs, some have 4, there is no problem about it.

I would like to wish happy New Year to the forum members.
Many thanks to many eBay sellers that show a real French integrity and kindness that helps to finish the AV 32S project.
Sincerely Ori
