master cylinder

So I've officially finished rebuilding my passenger drum after replacing the siezed parking brake cable and so I began to bleed the brakes. I bled the passenger wheel cylinder first and was able to get brake fluid to bleed through it. Upon cracking the bleed valve on the driver side wheel...

So my clutch pedal went soft 2 days ago. I was able to drive it home but I basically just floated the gears and if I had to stop I pumped the clutch a few times to get it to disengage. But even after that I would have to give it a lot of gas to prevent it from stalling. It wasn't something that...

I have a 1985 Ranger that is a full drag truck with a 408" stroker motor and am looking for a better master cylinder to the '85 stock one. Would a newer Ranger ( or ??) with disc brakes fit? Thanks in advance for help.

I'm doing the 97 dual piston new knuckle/rotor upgrade, for my 93 4.0 2wd, and I was probably going to replace the POS Duralast master cylinder with a motor craft one. My question is should I stick with a 93 master cylinder, or change it to the 97 master cylinder so it matches all the other...

I have a 5.0 with an np435, and a f150 bell housing with that slave and the stock 84 ranger master cylinder. can't seem to get enough flow to completely disengage the clutch. the pedal is hard and feels like it normally would. anyone know if there is a different slave or different master that...

I am building a 5.0 ranger with the np435 transmission. i can not get the clutch to disengage all the way. i have the bell housing and external slave cylinder from a 1985 ford f150 and the stock 84 ranger master cylinder. I've bled the slave cylinder to the point where I have a pretty hard pedal...

ok heres the story, we have a 1993 ranger 2.3l 5 speed. yesterday, out of the blue, asa i was going through a stop light, i shifted into first, released the clutch, and nothing happened. it was just like i was in neutral. so we got it home and got it in the garage, and i came in here to do some...

I'm installing a new clutch master and slave on my 1993 ford ranger xlt. I'm totally stumped on how to remove the clutch push rod from my pedal? Hoping somebody knows how? :) Thanks guys!

I've looked online to figure if it’s my slave cylinder or master cylinder going out. The symptoms seem to be the exact same. But I'm not replacing both. I'm taking it to the shop to get worked on, since the slave cylinder is inside the bell housing and it could get pricey. When I start the...

To become a Ford engineer and design systems for automobiles, you must first work on a bunch of stupidly designed systems with your own hands until completion. The kind that need cuss words at the people who thought them up. Then, tell everyone why it was stupid and promise you will never design...

So I have an 88 ranger, 2.9L, FM146 transmission with the 4.0 clutch swap. about 2 months ago my clutch peddle started getting spongy, after about a month and a half it wouldn't disengage until in just about hit the floor. So I ended up bleeding it. It fixed it, but it was only a few weeks...

So, I've had a problem with my 92 Ford Ranger Supercab XLT with ABS. About two weeks ago, I pulled over to let an ambulance pass me. I hit the brakes to slow down with no problems, but all of the sudden the brakes release and I have to push the pedal to the floor in order get any brakes at all...

clutch hydro system swap-ability? Tech advice needed OK so after using the search system and tech library and going through 30+ pages of the tranny tech threads with no answers in sight, I figure I should post my question. My rig is an 86 BII fm145 1350M combo. Amazingly surviving behind a 92...
