I just picked up a new to me 05 ranger 2wd 5pd with 130k miles. I have started to noticed a rattle with a squeak when pressing in on the clutch only in neutral. Sounds like a loose muffler (although not as obnoxious) and a slight squeak too. Only happens in neutral and going into first. Well not long after I noticed that sound it acted like the clutch wasn't engaging.. engine dying while stopped in gear but clutch pushed in. It also was very hard to shift, like it would be if you weren't using a clutch. I parked it after this happened.
I opened the inspection cover on the transmission and didn't see any fluid coming from the slave cylinder. Also checked the master reservoir and it had fluid in it. I did drive it for a couple of minutes today and didn't notice the hard shifting or dying. Any ideas what the issue is? Thanks!
