Greetings all. *Not sure if this is the correct Forum/Sub-Forum but I trust Admin/Mods will put it where it belongs*
I've owned a few manual transmissions in my 46+ years of driving (and driven quite a few more for work), however, I have never (as far as I can remember) had a clutch that would seemingly only work while "cold". When the engine reaches a certain temp. (warmed-up) the clutch gets very hard (to press) and simple won't work. Slave cylinder, perhaps?
I just bought the vehicle (obviously used) back in May/June and it's really in very good shape considering age and mileage (210,000+). I just needed a pickup to haul trash less than 5 miles (round-trip) every month or three.
1998 Ford Ranger XLT 4 cyl. (2.3L) Manual trans.
Thanks in advance for your consideration.
