Hello Collank, welcome to TRS :)
I'm not a real guru so you'll want to wait for one to get serious, I just drive one. I've never used the manual lock-in's either, I'm fine just pushing the 4X button.
Seems it might have low compression, but then I don't know much about the 3.0s either :D
Good luck with it tho, and pleased to meet ya.
 
Thanks Josh, I've wondered that myself. I've also wondered if the transmission is getting so hot the fluid is getting too thin causing loss of pressure. I'm no guru, changed a few engines and a few timing jobs on 5.4 tritons but never transmission work myself and this is my first "ranger" so I'm still learning the truck.
 
There is a LOT of well informed folks here Collink, no doubt you will meet some soon enough.
