Clutch pedal won’t push the push top broke while pressing clutch pedal
What is your question?
Clutch itself was recently replaced, throw out bearing was not replaced during clutch replacement. When I first got the truck before replacing the clutch the pedal would seem to catch, making a popping sound and momentarily stopping the depressing of the pedal, the rod connected to the pedal was loose or separating from the switch at end of rod nearest to floor. After reinserting the rod into this switch like cylinder the church began functioning properly again. After replacing the clutch and have driven the truck approximately 2,000 miles while parking the truck the pedal was to the floor but vehicle was still engaged, stalling the truck. Next morning cranked per usual then noticed the pedal seemed to stink then rise back up then a loud popping noise. The Rod which is plastic that turns into metal broke into. While trying to press the Rod back in I noticed I couldn’t push rod in after fusing the Rod together temporarily it snapped again while trying to press clutch pedal.
How long has your 1994 Ford Ranger had this problem?
Just happened while trying to crank and leave, popping sound happened once before but nothing broke at the time
Hello, the slave cylinder - which has the throwout bearing as part of the assembly - is notorious for being weak and failing on these models. My gut is you'll have to remove the transmission and replace it, as it's mounted inside the bellhousing of the transmission. I've personally replaced this component several times on a simlar Ford vehicle of the same vintage. Just do it right - replace the needed components, bleed air out of the system (another task) and go from there.
