Hard to shift
Hard to shift
Hello i have a 2000 ranger 5 speed manual and it pretty hard to shift, i know my power steering pump is bad bc it makes a real bad squeal when i turn, also i think my fan clutch is bad due to when i turn on the truck the fan is already engaged and doesnt turn off or freewheel it goes with my rpms, so my question is when im coming to a stop my engine bay is really loud sounds like a school bus also when taking off then when taking off in first gear, when i try to shift i feel like truck hesitates with me for 1-2 secs before i can change gears like the rpms are too high so it wont let me engage, happens to 1-4 gear mostly so i traffic it gets really tough to shift. It doesnt make any grinding noise at all, also when coming to a stop like i said the engine is reallt loud before i come to a stop the light turns green and i try to put it in first and i feel it not letting me into gear for that 1-3 secs while my foot is on the clutch, then i hear the rpms go down and it lets perfectly fine. My question do any of those two issues play any role in that? Any suggestions?
