Hello to all the good isuzu samaritans!
2003 isuzu rodeo 3.0 di turbo automatic.
Have been driving the van as normal last month and suddenly i feel loss of power.I turn the engine off for 2 mins and start again as if nothing happened.This happened about four times.The other day went to start,engine turns over but wont start! i try again after one hour and engine starts but cuts out after 10 seconds and would not start. diesel reaching past all fuel filters but will not *beep* up to injector. took car to isuzu and they say that they have no software for the engine as it was made in thailand!!
help any clues?
I will post photos of car and details this eve.
thanks a lot
Ian |

check the banjo bolt on the fuel inlet to the pump the uk model has a filter in it that gets clogged up, if thats clear then i would be getting the pump checked out as they do play up. have you got a check engine light on? if so theres a certain code that relates to lack of fuel flow which confirms the pump needs cleaning out.
what part of malta are you from? i'm over there in september visiting the inlaws |

Hello Eithan I see you are the most popular here!Thanks a lot for your help.I will check that as soon as poss ! i go to the local garage today as i left it there.They are as baffled as i am as they said they never saw my type of engine before!They said that most prob its a GM vehicle with an isuzu badge as isuzu dont even make leather seats apparently! i thought it is the same 3.0 di turbo like the trooper but they said its not! they are waiting for a reply from thailand today regarding software. I live in Gharghur ,its a village close to Naxxar. My partner is english and funnilly enough we are going to Derbyshire next week to escape the heat!
I have to go take some pics of the engine maybe you can recognise what it is.
thanks again! |
