GENERAL REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
1. Park the vehicle on level ground and chock the
front or rear wheels before lifting the vehicle.
2. Use covers on the vehicle body, seats, and
floor to prevent damage and/or
contaminations.
3. Disconnect the grounding cable from the
battery before performing service operations.
This will prevent cable damage or burning due
to shortcircuiting.
4. Raise the vehicle with a jack set against the
recommended lifting points (see ÒLifting
instructionsÓ in this section).
5. Support the vehicle on chassis stands.
6. Handle brake fluid and antifreeze solution with
great care.
Spilling these liquids on painted surfaces will
damage the paint.
7. The use of the proper tool(s) and special tool(s)
where specified is essential to efficient,
reliable, and safe service operations.
8. Always use genuine ISUZU replacement parts.
9. Discard used cotter pins, gasket, plastic clips,
O-rings, oil seals, lock washers, and self-
locking nuts at disassembly.
Normal function of these parts cannot be
guaranteed if they are reused.
10. Keep the disassembled parts neatly in groups.
This will facilitate smooth and correct
reassembly.11. Keep fixing nuts and bolts separate.
Fixing nuts and bolts vary in hardness and
design according to installation positions.
12. Clean all parts before inspection or
reassembly.
13. Clean the oil ports and other openings with
compressed air to make certain that they are
free of dirt and obstructions.
14. Lubricate the rotating and sliding faces of all
moving parts with oil or grease before
installation.
15. Use the recommended liquid gasket to prevent
leakage.
16. Carefully observe all nut and bolt torque
specifications.
17. When service operation is completed, make a
final check to be sure service has been done
properly and problem has been corrected.
18. When removing or replacing parts that require
refrigerant to be discharged from the air
conditioning system, be sure to use the
following tools to recover and recycle the
Refrigerant-134a (R-134a).
For 134a:
Use the R-134a Refrigerant Recovery/Recovery/
Recycling/Recharging/System (ACR
4) or its
equivalent to prevent the discharge of
refrigerant into the air.

NOTE: In the 4JXI-TC diesel engine, there is provided sub (2nd) oil filter for fuel injection at the upper part of crank case on the left
side of the engine. This oil filter maintenance-free and does not need a periodic replacement. See reverse side the (back)
cover for installation location of the sub (2nd) oil filter.(Replace every 200,000 km or 125,000 miles)

Reduced or no air flow through
the condenser
No bubbles in sight glass when
condenser is cooled by water
(Insufficient cooling)
After stopping air conditioning,
pressure drops approx. 196 kPa
(28 PSI) quickly
Insufficient cooling and excessive
bubbles in the sight glass
Low pressure gauge indicates
vacuum
Frost or dew on refrigerant line
before and after receiver/ drier or
