Ford ranger having trouble shifting

Manual trans having trouble shifting? (self.MechanicAdvice)

'03 Ford Ranger
My boyfriend's car is having a hard time going in to gear. In order to start the car, he has to pull up a little sleeve on the clutch pedal in order for the clutch to go in all the way. Then shifting into reverse is almost impossible and the car will drive backwards while the clutch is all the way down. Then moving forward, 1st is impossible, he has to start in second because the stick shifter won't go into first… Third is less hard to shift into and fourth is even less difficult (while driving or stopped). Another weird thing is sometimes when we're stopped and he tries to get it in gear, his spedometer shoots up to 80 or 90mph for a second without him pressing on the gas. Any suggestions welcome! A while back, he did have his gear box (I THINK) replaced… Ugh.

Why Won't My Truck Heat Work?

I have a 1995 Ford Ranger 2.3 that has NO Heat. I have replaced the heater core, heater valve, thermostat, blend door & actuator, checked all vacuum hoses too. The engine seems to get warm, the indicator does not go up to normal, one hose to the core is cool. It's a nice truck except for this issue. Any clues?

Ford ranger and tonno covers security?

I'm going to buy my first truck tomorrow, 2008 ford ranger. I notice that there's no lock on the tail gate. So my question if I bought a tonno how does it lock? What will I need? Some help please. Also I'm looking to buy a cheap tonno like the tri fold ones, will I have to install a lock on the rain gate? But how does that lock the tonno? Very confused

2000 ford ranger window rolls down but not up?

I have a 2000 ford ranger recently my passenger window stopped rolling up with either the drivers or passengers switch. It rolls down and the drivers window works fine. I took off the door panel and ran the motor straight to the battery and it rolled up and down fine. I thought maybe the switch but the switch for it on the drivers side doesn't work either but works for drivers window. I'm confused… Anyone got answers?
