My 1988 Ford Ranger XLT 2wd will not engage in forward unless I rev the rpms up and then as they drop it engages. Once engaged everything works fine until I switch the tranny out of drive. Then I have to do it again. Reverse works fine. I recently purchased this truck and the tranny had been changed. It has a 18 bolt pan and the tranny wasn't an exact swap because there is no place to insert the speedo cable. I have dropped the pan and replaced the fluid and the filter. I am guessing it has something to do with the electronics but am unsure. Any help would be appreciated.
