Comprehensive Instructions Needed...URGENT!!

[Hotsauce]

A few tips:

You must must must have an extra long needle nose pliers to get off the fuel supply and return lines from the nipples.

You will need 22mm open end for egr nut

No need to pull TB from upper manifold, remove as an assembly.

Drain about half the coolant before you start, or it wil pour out when you remove the hoses from TB

Thanks you guys are great!-
Go Isuzu... really positive and thanks for the subtle heads up. My third Isuzu, and this one I really love- I look forward to them stepping back up... To bad Omaha isn't closer....lol.
To all else I have pulled off all the fore mentioned to clean my TPS, Idle valve, EGR plenum, and EGR valve.
I am familiar with all the disassembly, and assembly up to the fuel rail. I stopped at reinstalling new Intake Manifolds due to the complexity of the fuel rail(not un bolting but removal to have free and clear ability to work). All the direct injection stuff was pretty easy... and I dielectric greased ALL connectors, but the fuel rail scared me from further work.
At this point my idle is stumbling, car stalls frequently, and has even thrown a check engine light only to go away... Not end of the world but distressing



At this point I have offered Tone a plane ticket and a little California dreaming to help me get my girl back to the state of grace she once so proudly rolled the streets in. If the cost are reasonable, expect to see pics of Tone beachside soon.

Thanks Again!

Hope it helped, even if it was just a little bit. Isuzu has a ways to go yet before they're back where they were just a couple years ago selling a hundred thousand cars a year here in the US, but they *are* on the right track. Don't give up on Isuzu yet... times, they are a changing.

Good luck with your VX!

Is good to know that isuzu is out there trying to come back as how once they were.i trully believe in isuzu's techology & quality,sorry the vehicross's engine came out with few down falls such as the oil consumption.

Few weeks ago i overheard that isuzu & toyota are working together to build small 4 cylinder compact sedan such as the corolla on diesel.

And as how every body knows toyota's reputation is the best across the world so i think that shall help isuzu's reputation to build up again.

All of us will deffinetly love to see a all-new re-designed VX out here with better features like more horse power (380 +) or factory supercharged,full size spare tire,in-dash NAV system with backing up sensors & rear view camera,spoiler sunroof,more cup holders,with 5 or 6 speed standard TOD transmmission,recaro bucket seats at rear instead of the bench,center console with more space,automatic tempeture control & much more.

I don't wanna be a turd in your punchbowl, but you're responding to a post from Feb. 2005, when there WAS a glimmer of hope for Isuzu in America.

That was then, this is now...

Yeah i realized that in the middle of my note,but about isuzu partnership with toyota is a going on right now.

But there's one thing about isuzu,if they keep dealers offering parts & accessories in the US they can also sell imported isuzu if there's a open window of opportunity in the future

Having seen the local dealership close the same year I bought my VX, and a steady stream of dealerships bailing out nationwide, I find it hard to share in your optimism.

But I do hope you are right...
