jason dont do a half assed job use full synthetic mobile one i have been in very high level race shops for a lot of years and there is nothing that will give you more bang for the buck than mobile one. better gas milage, a ton of miles more longevity all major help to the motor and go with mobile one for the tranny as well. blends are a joke because the part that is not full synthetic just reduces what is to a level of non. if you get my meaning. and there is no other than mobile one. i have seen the results there is no subsitute

Recently my 1999 trooper (automatic, diesel 3.1L) is not working properly. The problem is the gear is shifting smoothly from 1st gear to 3rd gear but was unable to shift to 4th gear. The speed will stay constant at 80km/hrs at 3rd gear. I have consulted a few mechanic, it seem that i'm getting a few opinion for my problem.
 
My second concerned is what is Torque on Demand? and how it functioned? Is it something link with ABS or ECU? I'm really confuse on this TOD system...Please Help!!!!!!

I have a 2000 3'.Trooper. TOD allows you to select either 'Power' power down shift (for hills or towing, or a shift up for 'winter' or slippery roads. You can select either (power/winter or neither), by the console switch near the shift lever.

Simply put, it is a traction sensing system. It monitors wheel speed via sensors on the Transfer case, and when is senses a difference in wheel speed between the front and rear wheels, it transfers power to the front axle until speeds match. It is a little more complex than this, but that is the basics, as I understand it.

1990 isuzu trooper 2.8 L V6 **HELP*** by reptileguy777

I just finished up a head gasket job on my trooper. Not the 1st head gasket I have ever done but boy what a pain in the butt. But here it the issue it starts up and runs great for about 30 seconds then it shuts off. If you stay on the gas it will stay running. It acts like a vacuum leak but I cannot find any. The check engine light comes on once in a while. The book had me check all kinds of crazy stuff I am at the end of my rope with this can you please help.
 
Thanx Josh

Sounds to me like maybe you have a vacuum leak OR maybe you need to check the routing of the vacuum lines? Again? How about the EGR...I think yours is electrically operated....is the connector in it, and is the gasket OK and the two bolts tight? Just basic stuff, I know, but easy to check. I think the fuel pump is shut off if oil pressure is too low, could that be a problem if yours is low? That might also explain why it will stay running when revved. Have someone else keep it running while you examine the engine while it is running...just be careful. HTH

I will definatley check that. The EGR seems to be operating fine it has no electric to it but I did not check the gasket. Also what exactly does the box that one of the EGR lines go into. It is next to the ignition coil and it has electric and 2 vacuum lines?
