Service Precaution
WARNING: IF SO EQUIPPED WITH 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, REFER 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, 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.

SERVICING
Servicing refers to general maintenance procedures to
be performed by qualified service personnel.
MODEL IDENTIFICATION
Engine Serial Number
The engine number is stamped on the rear left hand
side of the cylinder body.
AIR CLEANER
Oil Wetted (Viscous) Type Paper Element.
The air cleaner has an oil wetted paper element. No
servicing is required until the replacement interval is
reached.
Never attempt to clean the element, no matter how dirty
it may appear. The element is designed to provide
normal filtering efficiency until it becomes due for
replacement.
Refer to the Item “Service and Maintenance” in the
Owner’s and Driver’s Manual for general service
information.
LUBRICATING SYSTEM
Main Oil Filter (Cartridge Type Paper Element)
Replacement Procedure
1. Loosen the drain plug to drain the engine oil.
2. Wait a few minutes and then retighten the drain
plug.
3. Loosen the used oil filter by turning it counter-
clockwise with the filter wrench.
4. Clean the oil cooler fitting face.
This will allow the new oil filter to seat properly.
5. Apply a light coat of engine oil to the O-ring.
6. Turn the new oil filter until the filter O-ring is fitted
against the sealing face.
7. Use the filter wrench to turn the filter additional one
and 1/4 turns.

Cylinder Bore Measurement
1. Use a cylinder gauge to measure the cylinder bore
measuring direction for thrust and radial at
measuring points.
Legend
Measuring Point 1; 20 mm
2; 90 mm
3; 160 mm
2. Select the right piston grade by the averaged
cylinder bore measurement (maximum and
minimum value eliminated).

C 95.441 – 95.450 (3.7575 – 3.7579)
3. If measured values exceed the limit, replace or
adjust the cylinder block honing or boring.
Limit 95.950 mm (3.7776 in)
4. Boring of the cylinder bore is allowed until it is
0.5 mm (0.0197 in) diameter and oversized piston
is available as a service part.
Boring Cylinder Block
1. Use an oversized piston on the basis of above
mentioned cylinder using the largest inside
diameter.
2. Measure the piston outside diameter at right angles
with piston pin at a piston grade measuring point
69.75 mm (2.7461 in) from piston top surface and
calculate a inside diameter for cylinder boring.
3. Calculation of cylinder bore boring.

REASSEMBLY
1. Cylinder Block
2. Piston Cooling Oil Pipe
1) Fix the cooling jet pipes with knock pins on the
cylinder block.
2) Install the oil pipe for piston cooling in the
cylinder block, tightening a relief valve (1) and
four joint bolts (2) to the specified torque.
If oil jet pipe is forcibly assembled, the end of oil
jet may bend. It could make it impossible to
supply oil to the piston cooling hole, sometimes
causing piston seizure.
Sufficient care should be taken to pipe assembly
work.
