if it started slipping in 4th then get a new car. The transmission is going out. 4th gear is connected to the clutch and you will need to replace the clutch and the transmission when it gets worse. It costs in upwards of 2,000 dollars to replace and or rebuild. Good Luck
Check your transmission fluid level. Add if it is low. Your Ranger may at some point need a transmission rebuild. This involves pulling the transmission from beneath the truck and replacing the individual gears. Rebuilds are needed when the gear teeth (the grooved serrated edge of a gear) begin to wear. When this happens the gears cannot engage completely and the transmission will begin to slip.
First check the Automatic Transmission fluid for proper level and add as necessary. If the transmission slips in all gears, then the torque converter might be bad or worn out. If it slips in only 1 or 2 gears, the clutches may be worn out inside the transmission. A transmission rebuild is indicated in the latter situation. Make sure that the proper Transmission fluid is used as indicated in the manual or on the dipstick (if printed on it).
the transmission is failing, it is losing hydraulic pressure either from a failed pump or a defective seal inside the transmission, by now the clutches are fried as well, so a tear down and rebuild is the only thing to do to fix this.
dear friend-the fact that your vehcl does not pick up speed tells me that it is slipping,there is a pressure lost in the gear box,you have to remove and rebuild as the clutches will be burnt.
