1992 Ford Ranger - Starts Sometimes.. New Clutch. Help?

bad master CYL, MC or slave. or both is common
we replace both to finish it (shot gunned in)
my first PICKUP 1961 C10 had this, 3 on the tree.
start a post and state MANUAL transmission, as 99% of others have no clue whaT THAT IS..
GOT FLUID LOSS, WEEK BY WEEK? in clutch reservoir
A BAD MC LEAKS (DOT3) FLUID FROM REAR OR FOUNT OF FIRE WALL OR BOTH SIDES.
A BAD SLAVE LEAKS TO THE GROUND UNSEEN AS YOU DRIVE.
SO IF HAVE FLUID LOSS, BINGO IT LEAKS ! REPLACE THE BOTH IS BEST. AND Have longer service life.

You need a new clutch. The clutch disc has worn out, now it's slipping on the flywheel. Clutch kit: new pressure plate, new clutch disc, new clutch release bearing, and new crankshaft pilot bushing- about $150-200, somewhere in that range..

Have you checked the positive and negative connections at the battery, and are you getting voltage at the starter and solenoid when the key switch is in the start position ?
Have you checked the clutch safety switch ?

maybe your forks and or linkage is bad or not right for your ranger depending on what kind of kit you got hope this helps

Check the clutch adjustment. If your system uses a clutch master cylinder, the release components are suspect.
Your description indicates that the clutch is not fully releasing. Worst case is new clutch and both bearings....not the end of the world but more costly than release systems..

install new clutch, new clutch master cylinder bleed real well all new parts and still unable to put in gear clutch peddel real soft no pressure at all. what i'm I doing wrong?

FORDS ARE OK if the noise u are hearing is going away when u press the clutch it sounds like it is comming from the gearbox. the gearbox stops turning wheh u hold the clutch in is the gearbox noisey when u dive it 1-2-3-4 this will let u know if the gearbox is worn
is oil level ok ? check it and transfere case

hope it helps let me know if u need more help

teeth dont line up . on the old clutch the teeth are pushed back. the new clutch the teeth are out more which causes problems lining up. is there a method to line up and/or push the teeth in more

try bleeding your clutch

Check the clutch fluid (whiteish plastic resivour, drivers side firewall). My 88 Ranger has a slow clutch leak and I need to fill it maybe once a week. It went almost dry one day and I couldn't get it into gear (refilled it and all was ok). Also, sometimes if you don't put the rubber diaphram in correctly the clutch will feel funny.
Or your clutch could be gone/wornout.
