After driving down bumpy road my clutch does not seem to disengage, after it sits awhile it works fine, 2009 ford ranger

Sorry to be the bearer of bad, news but sounds like the clutch plate spring or one of them has broken which means getting the engine out expensive due to time it takes. Hope this helps Best wishes, Malcolm Campbell.

It is time to replace your clutch assembly and reface or change the flywheel. you may be able to do some adjustment but it will not last for long.

check ignition pick up its in the distributor. its responsible for spark in the plugs

most cases it's a bad slave cylinder try and bleed the system just like bleeding brakes

It seems you have a throw out bearing at fault, got to dis connect the transmission for that one

Please checck the fuse to the clutch and also the relay to the clutch drive. Perhaps there is a loose line here that is working intermittent.
Try to engage and disengage to see if the solenoid works fine.
If not check if the relay contacts are faulty and heating.
If so replace.
I hope this must solve the issue.

check the hubs for vacuum leaksthe lines should follw the abs sensor wires

The clutch has rusted to the flywheel drive the truck down the road you will have to start it in gear (1st) while driving push the clucth pedal to the floor and keep pushing up and down on the gas pedal to get the truck to rock forwards and backward the clutch should brake loose.

Replace your oil pressure sending unit. Usually costs about $10.
