6E–256 ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
POOR FUEL ECONOMY SYMPTOM
DEFINITIONS: Fuel economy, as measured by an actual road test, is noticeably lower than expected. Also, economy
is noticeably lower than it was on this vehicle at one time, as previously shown by an actual road test.
Step Action Value(s) Yes No
1Was the “On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check”
performed?—Go to Step 2Go to OBD
System Check
2 1. Perform a bulletin search.
2. If a bulletin that addresses the symptom is found,
correct the condition as instructed in the bulletin.
Was a bulletin found that addresses the symptom?—Verify repair Go to Step 3
3 Was a visual/physical check performed?
—Go to Step 4Go to Visual /
physical Check.
4 Check owner’s driving habits.
Is the A/C On full time (defroster mode On)?
Are tires at the correct pressure?
Are ex cessively heavy loads being carried?
Is acceleration too much, too often?—Go to Step 5Go to Step 6
5 Review the items in Step 4 with the customer and
advise as necessary.
Is the action complete?—System OK—
6 Visually/physically check: Vacuum hoses for splits,
kinks, and improper connections and routing as
shown on the “Emission Control System Schematics”.
Was a problem found?—Verify repair Go to Step 7
7 Check for low engine coolant level.
Was a problem found? —Verify repair Go to Step 8
8 Check for incorrect or faulty engine thermostat. Refer
to Engine Cooling.
Was a problem found?—Verify repair Go to Step 9
9 Remove and check the air filter element for dirt or for
restrictions.
Was a problem found?—Verify repair Go to Step 10
10 1. Using a Tech 2, display the MAP sensor value in
comparison with atmosphere temperature.
2. Check for a faulty, plugged, or incorrectly installed
MAP sensor.
Was the problem found?—Verify repair Go to Step 11
11 1. Using a Tech 2, display the ECT sensor and IAT
sensor value and warm up condition compared
with the typical data.
2. Check the specified value or wire.
Was the problem found?—Verify repair Go to Step 12
12 Check the knock sensor wire, shield wire, or
installation condition.
Was a problem found?—Verify repair Go to Step 13
13 Check the fuel pressure. Refer to 6E-108 pageFuel
System Diagnosis.

17 Oil Pan
A gear-type oil pump is directly driven by the crankshaft and
draws oil from the oil pan, via the suction pipe. If then passes
the pressured oil through a full-flow disposable oil filter, to the
main oil gallery in the cylinder Block. An oil pump pressure
relief valve and oil filter bypass valve are incorporated in the
system.
From the main oil gallery in the cylinder block, the cylinder
head and crankshaft main bearings are supplied with oil.
The camshaft bearings and hydraulic tappets are supplied
through the main feed galleries in the cylinder head. Vent
valves allow air to be expelled from the oil galleries in the
cylinder head. The balance shaft journals are directly fed from
the crankshaft main bearings. The connecting rod bearings are
fed via passages in the crankshaft. The oil returns to the oil
pan via passages in the cylinder block.

Inspection and Repair
CAUTION: Make necessary correction or parts replacement if wear, damage or any other
abnormal conditions are found through
inspection.
Reassembly
To install, follows the disassembly steps in the reverse order.
Important
Sealer - Apply silicon into groove in oil pan lugs prior to fitment of oil pan to block, remove excess sealer after oil pan
is bolted to block.

Service Precaution
CAUTION:
Always use the correct fastener in the proper location.
When you replace a fastener, use ONLY the exact part
number for that application. ISUZU will call out those
fasteners that require a replacement after removal. ISUZU
will also call out the fasteners that require thread lockers
or thread sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do
not use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, or other
corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or fastener
joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings adversely affect
the fastener torque and the joint clamping force, and may
damage the fastener. When you install fasteners, use the
correct tightening sequence and specifications. Following
these instructions can help you avoid damage to parts
and systems.

Air Cleaner Filter
NOTE:
The air cleaner filter is not damaged with the edge of the air
cleaner housing.
Removal
1. Remove positive ventilation hose connector.
2. Remove intake air temperature sensor.
3. Remove mass air flow sensor.
4. Remove air cleaner duct assembly.
5. Remove air cleaner element.
Inspection
Check the air cleaner filter for damage or dust clogging.
Replace if it is damaged, or clean if it is clogged.
Cleaning Method
Tap the air cleaner filter gently so as not to damage the paper
filter, or clean the element by blowing with compressed air of
about 490 kPa (71 psi) from the clean side if it is extremely
dirty.
