6C-10 ENGINE FUEL (6VE1 3.5L)
Fuel Pump Relay
General Description
In order to control the fuel pump and sender assembly
(FPAS) operation, the FPAS relay is provided. When
the starter switch is turned to “ON" position, the FPAS
relay operates the FPAS for 2 seconds.
When it is turned to “START" position, the Engine
Control Module receives the reference pulse from the
Ignition Control Module and it operates the relay, again
causing the FPAS to feed fuel.

Jump Starting Procedure
1. Set the vehicle parking brake.
If the vehicle is equipped with an automatic
transmission, place the selector level in the “PARK"
position.
If the vehicle is equipped with a manual
transmission, place the shift lever in the
“ NEUTRAL" position.
Turn “OFF" the ignition.
Turn “OFF" all lights and any other accessory
requiring electrical power.
2. Look at the built –in hydrometer.
If the indication area of the built –in hydrometer is
completely clear, do not try to jump start.
3.
Attach the end of one jumper cable to the positive
terminal of the booster battery.
Attach the other end of the same cable to the
positive terminal of the discharged battery.
Do not allow the vehicles to touch each other. This
will cause a ground connection, effectively
neutralizing the charging procedure.
Be sure that the booster battery has a 12 volt rating.
4. Attach one end of the remaining cable to the
negative terminal of the booster battery.
Attach the other end of the same cable to a solid
engine ground (such as the air conditioning
compressor bracket or the generator mounting
bracket) of the vehicle with the discharged battery.
The ground connection must be at least 450 mm
(18 in.) from the battery of the vehicle whose battery
is being charged.
WARNING: NEVER ATTACH THE END OF THE
JUMPER CABLE DIRECTLY TO THE NEGATIVE
TERMINAL OF THE DEAD BATTERY.
5. Start the engine of the vehicle with the good battery.
Make sure that all unnecessary electrical
accessories have been turned “OFF".
6. Start the engine of the vehicle with the dead battery.
7. To remove the jumper cables, follow the above directions in reverse order.
Be sure to first disconnect the negative cable from
the vehicle with the discharged battery.


Battery Removal

P1010001

1. Remove negative cable.
2. Remove positive cable (2).
3. Remove retainer screw and rods.
4. Remove retainer.
5. Remove battery.
Battery Installation

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.

6D2-2 IGNITION SYSTEM (6VE1 3.5L)
General Description
Ignition is done by the electronic ignition (El) that directly
fires the spark plugs from ignition coils through spark
plug wires without using a distributor. A pair of ignition
coils for the cylinders having different phases by 360

(No.1 and No.4, No.2 and No.5, No.3 and No.6) are
fired simultaneously.
Since the cylinder on exhaust stroke requires less
energy to fire its ignition plug, energy from the ignition
coils can be utilized to fire the mating cylinder on
compression stroke. After additional 360
rotation,
respective cylinder strokes are reversed.
The EI consists of six ignition coils, crankshaft position
sensor, engine control module (ECM) and othe
r
components.
The ignition coils are connected with the ECM.
The ECM turns on/off the primary circuit of ignition coils,
and also it controls the ignition timing.
A notch in the timing disc on the crankshaft activates
the crankshaft position sensor which then sends
information such as firing order and starting timing o
f
each ignition coil to the ECM.
Further, the El employs ignition control (IC) to control
similar to a distributor system.
Diagnosis
Refer to Section Drivability and Emissions for the
diagnosis to electronic ignition system (El system).

Spark Plug
Inspection
Poor spark plug condition adversely affects engine
performance. Carefully inspect each spark plug
following the procedure outlined below.
1. Remove the spark plug.
2. Check the plug for dirt and other foreign material.
If the plug is extremely dirty, the fuel and electrical
systems must be checked.
3. If necessary, clean the spark plugs by placing them
in a spark plug cleaning machine for no more than
20 seconds.
4. Check the electrode and insulator for wear and/o
r
cracking. If there is significant wear or cracking, the
plug must be replaced.
5. Check the gasket for damage. Replace the gasket i
f
necessary.
6. Measure the insulation resistance with a 500-vol
t
megaohm meter. Replace the plug if the resistance
is less than the specified value.
Insulation resistance: 50 M





or more

7. Check the spark plug gap. Replace the spark plug
the if gap is not as specified.
Standard: 1.0–1.1 mm (0.04–0.043 in)
Limit: 1.3 mm (0.05 in)





011RS011
 Do not attempt to adjust the gap of an old spark
plug. Replace the plug and adjust the gap of the
new plug if required.

Replacement spark plugs
 Under normal conditions (no problem with the fuel
and/or electrical systems), use replacement spark
plugs with a low heat value (hot-type plug).
 If insulator and electrode scorching is significant,
use replacement spark plugs with a high heat value
(cold-type plug).
