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 previousl shown by an actual road test.
(Larger than standard tires will cause odomete
r
readings to be incorrect, and that may cause fuel
economy to appear poor when it is actually normal.)

Inspection
 Inspect the louvered end of the sensor for grease,
dirt, excessive carbon build up or othe
r
contamination.
 A special anti-seize compound is used on the O2
sensor threads. This compound consists of glass
breads suspended in a liquid graphite solution.
The graphite burns away with engine heat, but the
glass breads will remain, marking the senso
r
easier to remove.
 New or service sensors will already have the
compound applied to the threads. If a sensor is
removed and is to be reinstalled for any reason,
the threads must have anti-seize compound
applied.


Installation Procedure
1. Install the O2 sensor to the exhaust pipe.
Apply anti-seize compound or the equivalent to the
threads of the oxygen sensor, if necessary.
2. Tighten the O2 sensor with specified tightening
torque.

Service Precaution
WARNING: THIS VEHICLE HAS A SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS). REFER TO THE SRS
COMPONENT AND WIRING LOCATION VIEW IN
ORDER TO DETERMINE WHETHER YOU ARE
PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR NEAR THE SRS
COMPONENTS OR THE SRS WIRING. WHEN YOU
ARE PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR NEAR THE
SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS WIRING, REFE
R
TO THE SRS SERVICE INFORMATION. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN
POSSIBLE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, PERSONAL
INJURY, OR OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS SYSTEM
REPAIRS.


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, o
r
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.
