hello to everyone. Please bear with me as not am i only new to this site but this is the first post ive written also. I have a isuzu trooper on a 2000 plate. Its the 3.0 citation and all is not well with her. I have treated her to a new oil rail pressure sensor rather than pull the white wire from ecu to no avail. She still stalls. Will start again with a bump. But not off the key. When started she plumes white smoke. Then as warms up the smoke clears. She could run for 5 mins or two hours. As she stalls the white smoke comes back, coughs then dies. I have now purchased a 2002 rwg 3.0ltr for spares and would apprecieate any help in breathing life into her. I have found out that the recalls are upto datw apart from throttle sensor postion wireing harness. Could that be my problem? Many thanks in advance. Phill

Hi, it really needs going on a tech 2 diag machine as apart form having the right oil in - 5/30 fully synth an a new fuel filter anything else is guesswork.
I dont think the TPS recall issue would cause it to die like that ,it sounds as if the fuel to the heads getting shut off for some reason _________________ 2 New Troopers !
