1996 Isuzu Trooper - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

I would check the vanes on the water pump and the inside of the radiator. Both can cause this.

battery weak or not getting properly charged try boosting and then have both tested

Check the O / D button, Check the O / D electrical connection, (over drive) Check the O / D solenoid

aluminum radiator plastic top and base seal tanks held in with crimps on aluminum radiator find a local radiator shop to replace top seal and top plastic part of that radiator not as expensive as a new radiator replace the thermostat pressure is too much on that crack for any diy repair product pop off hose at the wrong time =cook the motor

Could be the alternator . A Battery store could test your car's battery and alternator to determine if the alternator is working correctly and that the cars battery is ok as well.

read the opr manual, lost it? cant buy one>? what? its there , read it? here Ill answer for usa cars. i guess you didnt even look first and see those screws on the lens, right? they are there, once the lens is off the bulb is twist lock if that means no sense, get help do break the lamp off the base or NO FUN HAPPENS

the exhaust path there must be clear end to end, its NOT air that is EGR fail for exh. flow, for EGR only. which engine, ????? no 2 engines made use the same flow. so..........????????

why ask us, we cant see what you have there. no engine, stated, some engine have high output alternator (60 or 75amp) why not take it to the autostore, like all do and ask them to match what was there, what I do is look here, (usa cars) its free. you see them all, aftermarket parts. then see what matches yours, and makers then see p/n , do you own research, what does interchange mean, do you mean years used or all cars its used on,, if yes, them find yours below. say a delco, then go to delco dot come online ecatalog and look up that answer, there, its there, for sure. as is all makers, ecats. (shows used on x list of cars) and years. http://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/isuzu,1996,trooper,3.2l+v6,1177196,electrical,alternator+/+generator,2412?a=Referer+duckduckgo.com+URL+%2F

Is Check engine light on? If so you need to have a OBDII/EOBD test ran for code identification.

As in airbag light? Or disconnect airbag?

sounds very much like you have a blown head gasket !

Three things to check for:

1) High idle switch is on..*(vehicle thinks AC is running but it isn't.
You can try turning on the AC and see if the engine slows down to confirm this one.

2) Sticking or worn out Idle Air Control or IAC, You might get a check engine light with this one.....you might not if it's a mechanical failure.

3) Simplest of all. A vacuum leak. You can get the engine vacuum read while running if you go to a mechanic with a vacuum guage or an OBD 2 ecu code reader. There should be specs on what vacuum levels are normal for you car at idle.

Good luck and be careful!

Isuzu Workshop Manuals

Check the rubber vaccume pipes on the front axle first as it will do this if the pull out of 4wd one leaks the pull in 4wd one wins .It defaults to 4wd in .

You got 3 solenoids and a shift motor so best narrow it down a bit - try reading on isuzu trooper owners club UK about this problem .

What is the torque for the crank pulley for 3.1turbo

You tube videos ! googling it may so something .

Code 201 means there is a problem with the circuit for injector one. It could be the injector or in the wiring back to the computer.

you didnt say what is there now. we cant guess that. some of these cars use GM pattern...trans. so....

swaps are the most complex topic on cars, near infinite possibles. my guess is OE fit. (stock for stock) all transmission match engine power rating and some have same box but run special clutch (bigger) you never said what engine, so cant really answer... right. after all the bell housing flange shapes dictate fit. there. and what clutch works there.... 1996 had what. Gen 2 troopers had. 5 engines. 3.2 L 6VD1 SOHC V6 3.2 L 6VD1 DOHC V6 3.5 L 6VE1 DOHC V6 3.0 L 4JX1 TD I4 3.1 L 4JG2 TD I4 my wild guess 2, is he 6vx1 something,. the V6 engine. id say all v6 transmission fit, off hand. is this the v6 turbo engine option? to get a more prefect answer, try the only people that do that the hollander data base. (wreckers all use this (savvy ones) i think the stock trans is, MSG-5F (up to 1995 and 2.6L max) so get one of those an be sure it fits your transfer case? fits all trooper ,amigo and rodeos/ or read real forums asking this question? http://forum.planetisuzoo.com/viewtopic.php?t=51199 best yet, see all those transmission m/t here lots. http://www.autozone.com/repairinfo/repairguide/repairGuideContent.jsp?pageId=0900c1528006282b so is a MUA-5C box starting in 1996 this fits the bigger V6, (unstated by you) Honda pass port, same engine, same box.? the newer trans has and electric shifted 4wd section. so if not hollanders DB try google , if MUA-5C see that results, if you do that , all cars it fits may show up there for free best is to first learn whats there. and post.

That's because they're all on eBay. More transmissions then you'll ever need. Get in contact with truck shops in rural areas. Or hang wanted fliers in your local autopart stores. I bet someone has one rotting in his backyard he wishes would go away but dosent know you want it.
