1997 Ford Ranger 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

Just today I have had trouble getting my car into gear. It has about 150,000 miles on it and the clutch was replaced about 4 years ago. I have to shift the stick several times and basically shove it int gear. It is worse in first and secnd gear, but improves slightly on up. Any ideas? I appreciate the help on Thanksgiving.

Hi there,

Check for hydraulic fluid loss, an if so top up and re bleed, check the master and the slave for leaks and repair as needed.
