#35 of 44 2000 Isuzu Cleaned EGR valve and is stalling by ziggenpuss Nov 03, 2009 (11:55 am)
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.
#36 of 44 Rough Idle Issue by dodgedodger1 Nov 05, 2009 (5:17 pm)
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? Replies to this message: sparkplug7 (Nov 19, 2009 7:50 am)
#37 of 44 My '96 Rodeo wants to start, but dies.. by ivy96 Nov 14, 2009 (12:44 pm)
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 Replies to this message: sparkplug7 (Nov 19, 2009 7:23 am)

Replying to: cbuckley (Apr 24, 2009 2:45 pm) it sounds like a short from battery to starter not making enough contact. trace the red wire (positive wire) from the battery to the starter see if it is lose . and then tighten it up

Replying to: ivy96 (Nov 14, 2009 12:44 pm) it could be a sensor , but check your rotor(underneath the spark plug cap .it should go on one way just make sure when you take it off put back on the same way see if there any metal shaving in and around the distributor if it is replace the rotor . and (cap for cracks and shaving and corrosion if is is replace it . Fairly cheap to do less than 30 dollars) and spark plug wires to see if there getting fire ( pull a plug wire and then turn the engine over and see if a spark comes from the wire at the end don't start the engine just bump it over ) one plug wire at a time and put it back on after pulling it then go to the next one if no fire replace it also there is a air filter hose if it sucking air anywhere it will cause it to do that ( there's a diaphragm that the air breather goes to and if it the hose is old cracked or has a hole it, it will suck to much air. Cheap to replace . about 5 at a junk yard and about 15 to 20 at parts store . if that doesn't work you will need to get a diagnostic check at a shop they will hook it up on a machine and the rodeo computer will tell them a code then they look the code up and depending on what # comes up . a lot of times you can fix it yourself once you know what it is . the diagnostic usually runs about 50 to 75 dollars. depending on what state you live in hope this helps

Replying to: rodeofly (Oct 13, 2009 12:44 pm) sounds like a lose wire from the battery to starter check the red wire on the battery thats the one that goes to the starter , if it is lose tighten it up , and it will start fine
#42 of 44 Re: Rodeo won't start...help me please [veerodriguez] by sparkplug7 Nov 19, 2009 (7:41 am)
Replying to: veerodriguez (Oct 05, 2009 8:20 am) when you turn it over if it has a growling sound it is your starter , it is possible if you have a oil leak it has gotten inside the starter and it is not engaging , you can take it off and clean it with crab cleaner let it set for a couple of hours and put it back on. or take it off go to a parts store and have it checked

Replying to: dodgedodger1 (Nov 05, 2009 5:17 pm) cap and rotor also check the air hose if there is a crack or hole it it will cause it to suck to much air .also check the gas filter take it off blow on it and if air is not going thru it easily replace it(it's stopped up ) not letting gas get thru

Replying to: hagasn (Dec 31, 2007 3:32 pm) check your air filter hose it goes from the breather to the intake ,if it is cracked or has a hole in it it is sucking to much air
