I just had the leak fixed on my 2002 Trooper (57K miles.) The leaks were very small but persistent and it took me a while to figure out that it was indeed my "bulletproof" Isuzu that was leaking
 
I see a reference to the same 8-96017-093-0 (piston cover) and two quarts of dextron on my invoice.
 
This was covered under the 10yr/120K warranty with zero hassle at our local Marietta Mercury/Lincoln dealership (Isuzu service) and I was out within a couple of hours. I never really expected to ever need/use the warranty but, oh well, I'm very happy how things turned out in the end.

I have this same problem. Were you ever able to get this resolved. Does anyone have any suggestions?

#316 of 385 VSS problem, 92 trooper by maddsnakes

Dec 15, 2009 (8:54 am)

I'm reposting this as I never saw if anyone had any solutions and I have the same problem:
 
I also have a 92 Trooper 4WD V6 Automatic Trans. with VSS problem. I ordered a replacement VSS but it is not like what I see on the transmission. The VSS is hard wired at the transmission with the wiring going somewhere. There should be a connector at one end or the other of the wiring. Can you send diagram and replacement instructions or procedures? Also send any information on the Isuzu VSS part or part number and it there is any aftermarket replacement. I purchased part # H313303 and every place I look on the web says this is correct, but unless this is inside the housing I am seeing on the transmission, it is not correct.

#317 of 385 Vacuum leak and starting issue by molcolo

Have had a "hissing " sound from the top area of the engine, that has progressed and gotten worse. Have an issue with the starting as well? Battery is pretty new and replaced the terminal connectors. I now get a "click" noise but, not turning over. Any ideas?

Sounds like it is your starter. Hissing noise - you must have a crack in a hose somewhere. It is pretty simple to replace.

I just had this problem with my 93...did you only replace the pump or did you replace the whole assembly. If you didn't do the whole wiring/filter assembly, I would say you need to check the filter. It's my understanding that is the better route to go.

My alternator checked okay too....but it was ultimately the alternator. It's an easy change....I did it myself and I'm a girl.

Had the same thing. Replace intake gaskets and everything will be fine. As for starting check battery cable ends and replace if corroded or clean.

#322 of 385 Tranny? or Transfer Case? or??? by uincos

Jan 14, 2010 (6:47 pm)

i just bought a used 93 trooper for christmas. 187k miles, had it checked out- needs a valve gasket & O2 Sensor replaced and all else SEEMED fine. I've put a little over 2k miles on it in the past 2-3weeks and twice I have been pulling into my driveway- slight hill, gravel, no big deal... but when I step on the gas pedal the engine goes and the car doesn't. I have been told it is a slipping tranny and nothing but a repalcement will fix the problem. However, a friend says he had similar and it was the transfer case? Any thoughts? I hoped it would run longer than a month when I bought it and now i'm screwed?!

#323 of 385 Alternator/Starter by molcolo

Can you visually tell if the alternator or starter is bad? How can you determine if it's either one before pulling either one out of the vehicle?
