Fuel Filter Water Draining Procedure
The indicator light will come on when the water level in the
water separator exceeds the specified level.
Drain the water and foreign material from the water separa-
tor with the following procedure.
1. Find a safe place to park the vehicle.
2. Open the engine hood and place a container (Approxi-
mately 0.2 liter capacity) at the end of the vinyl hose
beneath the drain plug on the separator.
3. Loosen the drain plug by turning it counterclockwise
(Approximately 5 turns) and operate the priming pump
up and down about 10 times until water is drained
approximately 0.1 liter.
4. After draining, securely tighten the drain plug by turn-
ing it clockwise and operate the priming pump manu-
ally up and down several times.
5. After starting the engine, check to see that there is no
fuel leak from the drain plug.
Also check to see that the fuel filter water indicator light
has turned off.
If water separator requires frequent draining, have the
fuel tank drained for removal of water at your Isuzu
Dealer.
Air Bleeding
1. Loosen the bleeder screw on the injection pump over-
flow valve.
2. Operate the priming pump until fuel mixed with foam
flows from the bleeder screw.
3. Tighten the bleeder screw.
4. Operate the priming pump several times and check for
fuel leakage.
COOLING SYSTEM
Coolant Level
Check the coolant level and replenish the radiator reserve
tank as necessary.
If the coolant level falls below the ÒMINÓ line, carefully check
the cooling system for leakage. Then add enough coolant to
bring the level up to the ÒMAXÓ line.
NOTE:
Do not overfill the reserve tank.

FUEL SYSTEM
Fuel filter
Replacement Procedure
1. Loosen the used fuel filter by turning it
counterclockwise with the filter wrench.
Filter Wrench : 5-8840-0203-0
2. Clean the filter cover fitting faces.
This will allow the new fuel filter to seat properly.
3. Apply a light coat of engine oil to the O-ring.
4. Turn the fuel filter until the sealing face comes in
contact with the O-ring.
5. Turn the fuel filter with a filter wrench 2/3 of a turn
until sealed.

(1) Priming pump
6. Operate the priming pump until the air is discharged
completely from fuel system.
NOTE: The use of an Isuzu genuine fuel filter is
strongly recommended.
COOLING SYSTEM
Coolant Level
Check the coolant level and replenish the radiator
reserve tank as necessary.
If the coolant level falls below the “‘MIN” line, carefully
check the cooling system for leakage. Then add
enough coolant to bring the level up to the “MAX” line.
NOTE: Do not overfill the reserve tank.
