98 Ford Ranger ... Need Help

[Jon/xpm]

Howdy,

98 Ford Ranger 4 cycl
I drove the truck twice last week which had issues going into gear and seem like I had to force it. Tonight the truck would not shift into gear at all.

I was able to easily shift into gear when the truck is not started.

Please help me figure out what is wrong ( I believe it might be the clutch) and a hook up on a tow truck.

Anyone have recommendations for a mechanic in the area to have it looked at and fixed?

I am in the N Plano area (Custer and 121)

Thanks
Jonathan

Likely the clutch or the master/slave cylinder going bad. If you aren't leaking fluid, then it's likely the clutch.

JC316-Thanks for your reply. Is there any other way I can tell?
