FUEL SYSTEM
Fuel Filter Replacement Procedure
1. Remove the fuel filter by turning it counterclockwise
with a filter wrench.
Filter Wrench: 5-8840-0253-0 (J-22700)
Note:
Be careful not to spill the fuel in the filter cartridge.






RTW46ASH000501








2. Clean the fuel filter cartridge 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 in the fuel filter until the sealing face comes in
contact with the O-ring.
5. Turn in the fuel filter an additional 2/3 of a turn with a
filter wrench.
Filter Wrench : 5-8840-0253-0 (J-22700)





6. Operate the priming pump until the air discharged
completely from fuel system.
7. Start the engine and check for fuel leakage.
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.




Engine coolant Filling up procedure
1. Make sure that the engine is cool.
Warning:
When the coolant is heated to a high temperature, be
sure not to loosen or remove the rediator cap.
Otherwise you might get scalded by hot vapor or
boiling water.
To open the radiator cap, put a piece of thick cloth on
the cap and loosen the cap slowly to reduce the
pressure when the coolant has become cooler.
2. Open rediator cap pour coolant up to filler neck
3. Pour coolant into reservoir tank up to “MAX” line
4. Tighten radiator cap and start the engine. After idling
for 2 to 3 minutes, stop the engine and reopen radiator
cap. If the water level is lower, replenish.
5. After replenish the coolant tighten radiator cap, warm
up the engine at about 2000 rpm. Set heater
adjustment to the highest temperature position, and let
the coolant circulate also into heater water system.
6. Check to see the thermometer, continuously idling 5
minutes and stop the engine.
7. When the engine has been cooled, check filler neck
for water level and replenish if required. Should
extreme shortage of coolant is found, check the
coolant system and reservoir tank hose for leakage.
8. Pour coolant into the reservoir tank up to “MAX” line.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION









RTW46AMF000401

The 4J series automotive diesel engine has special designed combustion chambers in the piston. This design
provides superior fuel economy over a wide range of driving conditions.
Auto-thermatic pistons with cast steel struts are used to reduce thermal expansion and resulting engine noise when
the engine is cold.
Chrome plated dry type cylinder liners provide the highest durability.
The laminated steel sheet cylinder head gasket is very durable and, to increase the head gasket reliability.
The crankshaft has been tufftrided to provide a longer service life. Because the crankshaft is tufftrided, it cannot be
reground.
The 4JA1T(L) engine is equipped with the BOSCH VE-Type distributor injection pump.
The 4JH1TC and 4JA1TC engine is equipped with the BOSCH VP44-Type distributor injection pump.
The engine is turbocharger equipped.

Coolant Replenishment
Warning:
When the coolant is heated to a high temperature, be
sure not to loosen or remove the rediator cap.
Otherwise you might get scalded by hot vapor or
boiling water.
To open the radiator cap, put a piece of thick cloth on
the cap and loosen the cap slowly to reduce the
pressure when the coolant has become cooler.
1. Open rediator cap pour coolant up to filler neck
2. Pour coolant into reservoir tank up to "MAX" line
3. Tighten radiator cap and start the engine. After idling
for 2 to 3 minutes, stop the engine and reopen radiator
cap. If the water level is lower, replenish.
4. After replenish the coolant tighten radiator cap, warm
up the engine at about 2000 rpm. Set heater
adjustment to the highest temperature position, and let
the coolant circulate also into heater water system.
5. Check to see the thermometer, continuously idling 5
minutes and stop the engine.
6. When the engine has been cooled, check filler neck for
water level and replenish if required. Should extreme
shortage of coolant is found, check the coolant system
and reservoir tank hose for leakage.
7. Pour coolant into the reservoir tank up to "MAX" line.
