Ford Ranger More than two decades ago, the Ford Ranger debuted as an answer to various compact pickup trucks being made available by Japanese automakers. The Ranger was cleanly styled and offered with a choice of a 6-foot or 7-foot bed. Ford boasted that the Ranger had more interior room than the best-selling imports and that 4-by-8-foot construction material could be carried in the bed.

Unhappy how do you bleed a 93 clutch system

i just red the fed up money pit post and seen that one fellow had the same trouble as i do what im wondering is how do you check the master cylender on a ranger all i can see is the reservoir i got the diagram so i found the bleeder screw. how do i go about bleeding the system. i got the picture from tbars4 post. and it is the same system i got. my pedal is dead. it returns to the top and only feels resistane at bottom.

If you don't have some kind of mechanical or vacuum bleeder it's a 2 person job. Fill the resivoir up and 1 person under the truck will work the bleeder and one person in the truck will pump up the clutch. Just like bleeding brakes. pump it a couple times, push the pedal to the floor, open the bleeder (keeping foot on the floor and not taking your foot off), close the bleeder, let off the clutch pedal AFTER it's closed completely (you don't have to ape arm it closed, but snugg), rinse/repeat until there is no old fluid or air bubbles. Make sure to keep checking the clutch master cylinder resivoir to make sure it doesn't get to low so you don't inject air BACK into the system. If this doesn't inprove your clutch then there is something else wrong.

Remember the fluid goes under the rubber cup not in it.
