Why won't your 1988 Ford Ranger 5 speed transmission go into reverse?

You probably have synchronizer problems. More than likely 5th gear is also difficult since 5th and reverse share the same synchronizer. Whatever the case, someone will have to go into the tranny to fix it.

What Transmission fluid for 1990 Ford Ranger 5 speed 4 x4 2.9 engine?
I have a 1990 Ford Ranger XLT 5 speed 4x4 2.9L standard transmission. I recently had this question and this is what my manual says: For 1988 and on Mitsubishi transmission use SAE 80W transmission fluid For 1988 and on Mazda transmission use Mercon automatic transmission fluid For the transfer case '88 and on, it uses the Mercon automatic transmission fluid. The differentials use a "high grade lubricant" that is a different fluid than the transmission uses. I used Haynes. Look on page 1-2 for a list of all the lubricants and fluids and Chapter 7 for more information about the different transmissions.
