What's causing this clutch problem: '96 2.3L
I just bought this 1996 Ranger with 55,000 miles. The clutch doesn't hook up until the pedal is almost fully released but thats ok since it doesn't slip when it's engaged. Then today I stated having problems. Sometimes the clutch hooked up very abruptly when the pedal was almost fully released so as to stall the engine and chirp the tires. Other times I couldn't press the clutch pedal down, it felt like there was a tennis ball between the pedal and the floor. Once I couldn't start the truck because I couldn't press the clutch in! I had to override the clutch switch to start it. Then I could press in the pedal. What could be the cause of these problems? They only happen when the truck is stationary. When moving there is no problem.
