How do you change the spark plugs
If you have a "coil pack" on top of the plug, just take that off and then use a spark plug socket. If I remember right it takes a 10mm socket to take the screw off that holds the coil pack on.
Where can i get a
You should be able to get one at any auto parts store, just tell them which side of the car because one is reverse threaded. hope this helps.
Truck won't start - even
Take one of the spark plugs out to check for spark. I like doing this in a dark garage. take the plug out and insert the plug wire back on. Have someone turn the engine over. You should see spark at the bottom of the plug where the electrode is. If you don't see spark? You need to check the cap and rotor. Or if you see that you have spark ? That's great disconnect the fuel line and turn the key on for a second did you see fuel? If not ? You have either a clogged fuel filter , a busted gas line, or a bad fuel pump. If you have both? Do a compression check on all the cylinders remember that anything over 15% difference between cylinders is bad. Means you have internal problems. Is there any back firing or pops heard while your trying to start it? If so you have a timing issue. Might be a bad timing chain or belt.
Please leave me a good feedback.
Water pump and timing belt replacement
confirm you timing belt marking at the engine before you start the work. then dismantle all the belt one by one until you reach the timing cover. mark the timing mark again. then start dismantle the timing belt set. after all the belt are out, open the water pump and start to put back the new part by using reverse order from the opening list. make sure the timing marking are the same as you check at the first time. before you start the engine, make sure you turn the engine 2 or 3 round and make sure no part are hitting. good luck.

Diagnostic code for isuzu rodeo p1125,p1295, and
P1125 is: Throttle Positioning Sensor intermittent.
P1295 is: Multiple faults on bank 1 (right)
P1550 is: Power steering pressure sensor out of self test range.
Well the ECM recognizes 3 codes. Were these codes stored as inactive (in the history section)? Or are these codes all active? Code P1125 and P1295 may be related but P1550 is separate. How else may I help?
2002 ISUZU RODEO SE ABS LIGHT IS ON, WHY?
last question as my back hurts from sitting on computer ,right first lift each wheel up and check the wires to the sensors on the wheels ,their is a metal ring with teeth on and what often happens is the wire breaks to the sensor or the metal ring comes loose on the shaft and just spins around .Try this first before you go to a garage who would weld the ring up and charge you for a new computer or something
Rear brake drum removal
Remove the caliper and make sure the E-brake is off, the drum should fall off. If not, a couple whacks with a lead hammer will knock it loose. The rotor and drum are one. The brake shoes on the E-brake are never worn, they don't see much use when moving. they just lock the wheels. Hope this helps.
