1992 Isuzu Rodeo 3.1L 6 cylinder engine 4X4, had put down wrong engine size
Hi,
Isuzu seem to have complicated things by changing engines, firing orders and even direction of rotation! As you can see, they've numbered the cylinders the other way than the 3.2L.
The Firing sequence for the 3.1 (traditional distributor) 6 cylinder is as follows -
If you take the distributor cap off, there should be a "No.1" formed on the inside. Stick a lead on this before you put the cap back on and go from there.
As leads are different lengths, you may have to swap a few to find the best fit.
I think 2 of them will look out of place - but that's the way it's designed. Just make use of clips for holding them neatly.
Thanks for using Fixya.

1993 Isuzu Rodeo engine tick at idle and other
a very common problem with these engines is a clicking sound in the engine, it can be a slight annoying click, to a loud knocking sound. I end result is usually the same, replace your timing belt and tensioner. I researched this problem when i bought mine, and it was knocking. i replaced the timing belt, (which was loose) and actually took the tensioner apart and cleaned it (not recommended for the mechanically challenged). new tensioners may be tought to find. when i put it all back together, it ran smooth and quiet.

I'm looking for some advise on how to replace a rear axle bearing on a 1992 Isuzu Rodeo. I have notices a steading growling noize that is getting louder every week I drive it. It doesn't really sound like a differential whine that stops while under a load and starts whineing after you let off the power. I think I might be an axle bearing going out.
Help?
Can I remove the rear axle shafts with bearings without pulling the differential cover plate and removing any retainment clips etc. that might be inside the differention housing?
That absolutely sounds like an axle (wheel) bearing. Jack up that corner of the truck and grab the top and bottom of the wheel, and shake like crazy. If you have any play whatsoever, it's a sign of a bad bearing (although you could have a bad one and not have any play - it would only mean the bearing isn't worn badly enough to cause looseness in the wheel).
You should be able to remove the axles without opening the diff up. If the axles have c-clips or snap rings on the ends inside the diff, you can usually get the axles out by dismounting them from the hubs and getting them free of all attachment except the diff, and then use a large flat-tip screwdriver as a pry bar. Use it right where the axle body mates to the diff, and lever it while you pull/yank/shake/swear at the axle, and you'll manage to pop the axle out of the diff. Sometimes it takes some time and profanity, but so far it's worked for me everytime.

I experienced a sudden power loss while driving. My speed drops drastically going uphill. Since the loss of power i am now also hearing a rattling inside the muffler as if there is something inside. I've changed the fuel filter, plugs and plug wires. The new plugs and wires improved things slightly. Could the muffler be responsible for power loss??
did u check the catalyst is it loose inside..see how much back pressure from the exhaust u r getting

1992 Isuzu Rodeo. Trying to replace the factory Fujitsu Ten Limited tape-deck/radio (Model No. CE-8641 IS3A)
People have said to just buy the 10 dollar Wiring harness kit. Which I did and waited 2 weeks for delivery, only to find that the wires did not match.
I've found a number of places online that purport to offer the Wiring Diagram. But again, none match. For various reasons.
Most have both difference colors, and a different number of wires. Some have the right number of wires, but the wrong Colors.
I have 12 wires.
I am fairly sure that the first 8 are the speakers, as they come close to matching the speaker colors listed on the diagrams that I can find online.
Red/White stripe
White
Orange
Black/Orange stripe
Green/Gray stripe
Gray
Blue/Yellow stripe
Yellow
The final 4, however, don't match any list.
Two of them color match a wiring diagram for a 1995 honda passport,
Brown/White stripe
Green/Red stripe
But the final two don't match any wiring diagram I've been able to find.
Red/Green stripe
Red. (with a blue dot)
Some diagrams want those last two to be red/yellow stripe and Black. Or black/yellow stripe and red/black stripe. Or Black and Blue/White stripe.
As those two wires are probably "ground" and "power"....I am hesitant to try to figure it out with trial and error...for fear of blowing out my new stereo if I get it wrong. Not to mention that in order to get down to just those two being unknowns....I have to mix and match a number of different wiring diagrams, some from different years of Isuzu's...and some from Honda Passports of different years.
And so, as you might guess. I am somewhat at a loss for what to try/where to go next to try to figure this out, short of trial and error and perhaps ruining my new radio/cd player.

I am trying to replace the heater core in my 1992 Isuzu Rodeo. I know I must remove the dash panels, but, can only find a few places that I can remove the screws. I went to a local junk yard where there is the same model Rodeo and still couldn't figure out how to get the dash panels to remove. Does anyone have a diagram of connecting points or can tell me what I must do to remove the panels?
Thanks
You need to buy a repair manual first. You must have the feon removed, because you must disconnect the AC lines from the evaporator, It took me about 4 hours. The screws are under the dash at each end plus in the middle there is a support brace bracket.

front drivers sideaxle remove from housing on 92 isuzu rodeo 4-wheel drive . removing both axles because i want to replace ring&pinion in (front stump)
NOTE: The right axle shaft is an integral part of the right halfshaft assembly. Removal of the left axle shaft involves disassembling the shift-on-the-fly four–wheel drive gearbox. The inboard joints of both halfshafts fit through the axle mounting brackets, which are bolted to the axle housing, therefore the axle housing should be removed from the vehicle for ease of disassembly.
Be careful not to damage the CV–joints, boots, or splined shafts when removing the axle.

How do I change a thermostat in a 1995 Isuzu Rodeo. My car is overheating and I think my thermostat is stuck. When it happened there was very little oil in the car. I put oil in the car and dropped the cap into the engine. I couldn't reach it and had to get to work. I noticed my heater was no longer getting hot. Almost home from work car overheated and stalled. Had a friend push me up to the house. I replaced the oil cap but think thermostat is either stuck or broken. I would like to remove it for a quick fix until I can fix it properly. How do I do that?
more like a head gasket .thermostat is located on the engine end of the top hose with two bolts holding it on
