Transmission problem
1995 Ford Ranger Two Wheel Drive Manual 145000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
My clutch worked fine driving home from work. When I went to get back in it the next day, when I started it, the truck started to take off on its now. and now I have NO pressure in the clutch pedal when pressing it down. What can cause this? Clutch had plenty of pressure before and now none. Went into gears just fine without any grinding. I've got no idea. and I have no idea how to replace it myself.

This happens when the secondary cylinder goes out which is common, look under the transmission bellhousing and there should be a leak and if so this video will show you howe to fix it. The video is on a similar car but the process is the same.
