maybe your transmission is going out or you dont have sufficent transmission fluid.
well if its 5 speed it dosent have one.
For a 1992 Ford Ranger , 2.3 liter four cylinder : The 5 speed manual transmission takes ( 2.8 U.S. quarts of MERCON automatic transmission fluid )
Should be a plug at the side or the transmission - fill to this level
The 1992 2.3L 5 Speed required Mercon Automatic Transmission Fluid. That's right, you need to put ATF in the manual transmission.
A 5 speed (Mazda built) Manual transmission requires Mercon or Dextron II automatic trans fluid. A 4 speed requires 80w-90 gear lube.
The 1992 5-Speed DOES NOT have a dipstick. You have to remove a threaded plug on the drivers' side of the transmission to check the fluid level. Be careful, the Mazda 5-speed tranny is to be filled with Mercon ATF (automatic transmission fluid), not heavy gear lube. Fill with fluid until it begins to run out of the threaded plug hole.
Your 1992 Toyota transmission will hold 12 quarts of transmission fluid, when it is empty. You can check the transmission fluid level with the dipstick.
On a 1992 Ford Ranger : It depends on which 5 speed manual transmission you have : The Mitsubishi transmission , code " D " ( takes 4.8 pints of 80-90W gear lube ) The Mazda transmission , code " M " ( takes 5.6 pints of MERCON automatic transmission fluid )
You can use any SAE certified automatic transmission fluid in your 1992 Mitsubishi. You should never overfill your automatic transmission fluid.
