I have a 96 ford ranger. The shifter "Sitck" or i have to work it in to gear . This is only 1st and 2nd gear. it drives fine once its moving, just does this at stops. pi'm expecting to have to replace the clutch. I just want to know what to look for so i dont get ripped off.

 

Before you have the clutch replaced you might want to check these items.
I believe your vehicle may have a hydraulic clutch system and therefore can you check if the clutch master cylinder is full of fluid?
Also, does the clutch linkage need to be adjusted?
