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.

101RW001
Adjustment
1. Loosen adjusting nut and lock nut.
2. Pull outer cable while closing fully the throttle valve.
3. Tighten adjusting nut and lock nut temporarily.
4. Loosen adjusting nut by three turns and tighten lock
nut.
Then, manually operating the throttle valve, make
sure that the valve lever returns up to the stopper
screw.
If it does not reach the stopper screw, repeat from
step 1.

Adjustment
Manual Transmission:
Rotate counterclockwise to loosen the lock nut and
screw the stopper bolt in sufficiently.
Fully depress the pedal and hold it there with your
hand. Next, rotate the stopper bolt until it hits the
stopper of pedal bracket. Then, lock the stopper bolt
there.
Automatic Transmission:
Rotate counterclockwise to loosen the kickdown
switch sufficiently.
Fully depress the pedal and hold it there with your
hand. Rotate the switch clockwise and then rotate
further by 1/2 turn from the position where the switch
clicks. Lock the switch there.
Step on the accelerator pedal and make sure that you
can hear a clicking sound at the full stroke position.

6A – 2 ENGINE MECHANICAL
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Cylinder Head Gasket
The cylinder head gasket is laminated steel sheets.
Three grades of the gasket according to the measured
piston head projection from the cylinder block are
provided to give the engine a minimum compression
ratio fluctuation.
Tightening Method for
Special Bolt
The cylinder head fixing bolts, flywheel bolts and
connecting rod cap fixing bolts are tightened by the
angular Tightening Method.
Piston
Auto-thermatic pistons having steel struts with a 0.4
mm offset from the piston pin center line, are applied to
reduce thermal expansion and resulting engine noise
when the engine is cold.
Bearings
The crankshaft bearings and connecting rod bearings
are of aluminum having a high bearing surface.
These bearings are especially sensitive to foreign
material such as metal scraps. So, it is very important
that the oil ports and other related surfaces are kept
clean and free of foreign material.
Crankshaft bearings are selected for optimum bearing
and journal clearance which reduces vebration and
noise.
