Hey Dan==It can be several things. first make sure it has fluid in the master cyl. If it is full, you probably need to have it checked out . GoodluckJoe clutch slave cylinder or clutch master, or brake master, all are not very expensive spring
There is no hydraulic fluid in the transmission. However, there is hydraulic fluid in the clutch system. If the clutch fluid reservoir is empty it would cause clutch not to operate.
yes hydraulic could cause this also the clutch pressure plate could be collapsed
if its hydraulic there could be air in your line. bleed your clutch and refill.
Bad hydraulic cylinders.
A worn out clutch release bearing would cause a whining sound when you put your foot on the clutch.
Slack in the clutch release or clutch basket. It might adjust out.
It is a hydraulic clutch. An excess of fluid in the system will cause it to be hard to pull back. Either that, or you need to lift some weights so that you won't notice.
rapid release of the cluth pedal. When stationary can cause a car to stall. When on the move can restart an engine, as in bump starting.
the most common reason for this would be a worn throwout bearing sizing when hot or worn fingers on clutch plate both require removal of transmission to fix
If the clutch is froze, I assume disengagment is the problem. Check the freeplay, or if it is hydraulic, check to see if linkage is disengaging the throwout bearing. Unless you know what you are doing, take your ranger in to an A.S.E. certified auto technician. A faulty clutch system can cause serious damage and injury to you and other's.
Either the clutch fluid level could have gotten low allowing air into the lines or you may need to replace your clutch master cylinder. Try adding DOT3 brake fluid and then pumping the clutch pedal. If you start to notice some resistance then you need to bleed the clutch hydraulic lines.
A leak around the release screw most likely culprit.
