My '93 Isuzu Rodeo has been having problems starting for the last few days, ever since it passed its emissions test. I turn the key, "click", no start. The lights, radio, etc. work, so I don't think it's the battery. It's been starting after a few tries. Any ideas?

My Isuzu rodeo died to day while I was driving it. I was driving and the rmps dropped to 0 it is a manual tranny. A fried said it sounds like the fuel pump. It sounds like it wants to start it just doesn't. Does anyone know what it could be if so PLEASE give me a little insight...

Hi, my 94 Buick Park Avenue just had its fuel regulator replaced because it was sort of jerking occassionally while driving at highway speeds. After that was fixed, it seemed to drive OK, except at around 1500 rpm, it would sort of shudder and jerk lightly. The mechanic said he would check it, but before I could get it in there, it started dying while braking, but only once in a while. (It is hard for me to get time off work to leave my car, so I put off going back to the mechanic.) I watch the alternator indicator and it doesn't go one way or the other. The car just dies with no notice or noise or anything. Suddenly no power steering. Fortunately, the times it has done this is either right before stopping or as I slow way down to make a turn. Today however, it was totally dead when I tried to start it. Click, click, click. The second time, I tried, it made a metal clanking noise. I got a jump and it started right up, drove quite well for a trip, but as I approached home, slowed down to stop at a traffic light, it died. The battery and alternator were replaced last winter. Also, the computer module was replaced last winter. Any help appreciated.

| just cleaned the EGR valve on my 2000 Isuzu rodeo and now I am having idling and stalling issues, the descriptions of the "pintle" were confusing, is there any way to resolve this issue? We followed the instructions to the letter, and now the car will stall out when in park, and when placed in drive , it seems as if the engine is about to stall. | |

I noticed this issue with the 91 Rodeo but I did not see where anyone had a good response that fixed the problem. My brother has the same issue with the same model & year vehicle, and after replacing the O2 sensor and cleaning the EGR valve the issue is still present. When the car sits for a while it will start right up, run a bit, then starts to run rough and then dies out. It acts like there is no gas but when we pull the gas lline on top the enginer and turn the ign on the gas comes pouring out - so it's not that. Sprayed carb cleaner around the intake and didn't help. Does nyone have any good ides of what to chek next?

After it's been sitting for a while, it starts right up, but most of the time, I have to practically floor it to get it to stay on. I turn the key, hear it start and hit the gas, and if i let the gas go too soon, the engine dies. Husband thought it was just as simple as spark plugs, so he changed them, but the same thing happened. What do i do? What could it be? My check engine light is on right now, but it goes on and off at will (it seems) Im at a loss. Please help
