6B-6 ENGINE COOLING

















Draining and Refilling Cooling
System
Before draining the cooling system, inspect the system and
perform any necessary service to ensure that it is clean, does
not leak and is in proper working order. The engine coolant
(EC) level should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" lines of
reserve tank when the engine is cold. If low, check for leakage
and add EC up to the "MAX" line. There should not be any
excessive deposit of rust or scales around the radiator cap or
radiator filler hole, and the EC should also be free from oil.
Replace the EC if excessively dirty.
1. Completely drain the cooling system by opening the drain
plug at the bottom of the radiator.
2. Remove the radiator cap.
WARNING: TO AVOID THE DANGER OF BEING BURNED,
DO NOT REMOVE THE CAP WHILE THE ENGINE AND
RADIATOR ARE STILL HOT. SCALDING FLUID AND
STEAM CAN BE BLOWN OUT UNDER PRESSURE.
3. Disconnect all hoses from the EC reserve tank.
Scrub and clean the inside of the reserve tank with soap
and water. Flush it well with clean water, then drain it. Install
the reserve tank and hoses.
4. Refill the cooling system with the EC using a solution that is
at least 50 percent antifreeze.
5. Fill the radiator to the base of the filler neck.
Fill the EC reserve tank to "MAX" line when the engine is
cold.
6. Block the drive wheels and firmly apply the parking brake.
Shift an automatic transmission to "P" (Park) or a manual
transmission to neutral.
7. Remove the radiator cap. Start the engine and warm it up a
t
2,500 - 3,000 rpm for about 30 minutes.
8. When the air comes out from the radiator filler neck and the
EC level has gone down, replenish with the EC. Repeat this
procedure until the EC level does not go down. Then stop
the engine and install the radiator cap. Let the engine cool
down.
9. After the engine has cooled, replenish with EC up to the
"MAX" line of the reserve tank.
10. Start the engine. With the engine running at 3,000 rpm,
make sure there is no running water sound from the heate
r
core (behind the center console).
11. If the running water sound is heard, repeat steps 8 to 10.

ENGINE FUEL (C24SE) 6C-3


When working on the fuel system, there are several things to
keep in mind:


Any time the fuel system is being worked on, disconnect the
negative battery cable except for those tests where battery
voltage is required.


Always keep a dry chemical (Class B) fire extinguisher near
the work area.

Replace all pipes with the same pipe and fittings that were
removed.

Clean and inspect "O" rings. Replace if required.


Always relieve the line pressure before servicing any fuel
system components.

Do not attempt repairs on the fuel system until you have
read the instructions and checked the pictures relating to
that repair.

Adhere to all Notices and Cautions.
All gasoline engines are designed to use only unleaded
gasoline. Unleaded gasoline must be used for proper emission
control system operation.
Its use will also minimize spark plug fouling and extend engine
oil life. Using leaded gasoline can damage the emission control
system and could result in loss of emission warranty coverage.
All cars are equipped with an Evaporative Emission Control
System. The purpose of the system is to minimize the escape
of fuel vapors to the atmosphere.



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 othe
r
corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or fastene
r
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.

Precautions
 Do not light a match or create a flame.
 Keep flames away from your work area to preven
t
flammable materials from catching fire.
 Disconnect battery ground cable to preven
t
electrical shorts.
 Pre-treat piping system or associated parts from
thermal damage or from spattering when welding
or similar heat-generating work.

Do not expose the assembly to battery electrolyte or do
not wipe the assembly with a cloth used to wipe off spil
t
battery electorolyte.
Piping that has been splattered with battery electrolyte
or battery electrolyte soaked cloth that was wiped on the
piping cannot be used.
Removal
1. Open the fuel cap to relieve the fuel pressure in the
tank.
Use compressed air to remove any dirt on the fuel
quick connect fittings prior to disconnecting the
fittings.




141R100002
When disconnecting the fuel pipe, cover the area
with a cloth to prevent fuel from splashing as the
fuel pipe may still have some pressure in it.
2. For removal of the quick connector, hold the quick
connector in one hand, and pull out the connento
r
with the other hand while pressing the square
relieve button of the connector, as illustrated.






140R100037
NOTE: Do not use tools of any kind. Only use bare
hands when disconnecting the connector. Use a
lubricant (light oil) and/or push and pull the connecto
r
until the pipe is disconnected.
Cover the connectors that was removed with a
plastic bag, to prevent dust or rain water from
entering.

Reuse of Quick–Connector
 Replace the port and connector if scratch, dent or
crack is found.
 Remove any dirt build up on the port when installing
the connector. Replace the connector, if there is any
forms of rust, dent, scratch.

After cleaning the port, insert it straight into the
connector until it clicks. After it clicks, try pulling a
t
49N (5kgf) it out to make sure that it is not drawn
and is securely locked.

Assembling Advice
By applying engine oil or light oil to the pipe, port makes
pipe assembly easier. The pipe assembly should take
place immediately after applying oil (to prevent dus
t
from sticking to the pipe surface –which may
decrease sealing ability).
Test/Inspection After Assembling
1. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
2. Turn the ignition key to the “ON" position and listen
for pump start-up sound. Inspect for leaks, the
fuel pressure will increase as the fuel pump is
actuated.
3. Perform leak inspection (step 2) several times.
4. Start the engine and observe the engine idle speed.
The presence of dirt in the fuel system may affec
t
the fuel injection system.

6D2-2 IGNITION SYSTEM



General Description
Ignition is done by the Ignition Module that fires.
Since the cylinder on exhaust stroke requires less energy to
fire its spark plug, energy from the ignition coils can be utilized
to fire the mating cylinder on compression stroke.
A notch in the timing disc on the crankshaft activates the crank
angle sensor which then sends information such as firing order
and starting timing of ignition coil to the ECM.
By receiving signals such as crank position, engine speed,
water temperature and Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP), the
ECM controls the ignition timing.




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.

Removal
1. Remove spark plugs.
Inspection and Repair
The spark plug affects entire engine performance and
therefore its inspection is very important.


Check electrode and insulator for presence of cracks, and
replace if any.


Check electrode for wear, and replace if necessary.


Check gasket for damage, and replace if necessary.


Measure insulation resistance with an ohmmeter, and
replace if faulty.

Adjust spark plug gap to 1.0 - 1.1 mm (0.027 in) - 0.8 mm
(0.031 in).


Check fuel and electrical systems if spark plug is extremel
y
dirty.


Use spark plugs having low heat value (hot type plug) if fuel
and electrical systems are normal.


Use spark plugs having high heat value (cold type plug) i
f
insulator and electrode are extremely burned.



Sooty Spark Plugs
Much deposit of carbon or oil on the electrode and insulator of
spark plug reduces the engine performance.
Possible causes:


Too rich mixture


Presence of oil in combustion chamber


Incorrectly adjusted spark plug gap



Burning Electrodes
This fault is characterized by scorched or heavily oxidized
electrode or blistered insulator nose.
Possible causes:



Too lean mixture


Improper heat value




Measuring Insulation Resistance


Measure insulation resistance using a 500 volt megaohm
meter.

Replace spark plugs if measured value is out of standard.
Insulation resistance: 50 M

  or more
