weirdest thing, last year when it got cold my 01 ranger's clutch would only engage about an inch from the floor like the cable had stretched or something. when the weather warmed up it was fine. well, now that it is cold again the clutch is acting up again although this time wont engage at all. i dont think the clutch needs replaced but im not sure what would be causing this either. never seen anything quite like it. hoping someone else has and can tell me what is going on. appreciate any advise.
i posted this in ford tough but got no responses after 5 days so i am posting here as well. please dont move for at least 24 hours.
thanx,
Q
