Today I work on a Isuzu NPR that's been sitting for years! Will it start? I have faith it will! Not sure what I'm going to do with this yet. Maybe use the drive train for a swap?!
Got the same truck around the same time around Oct 2019. Runs good I turned up the fuel pump a bit gives it a little more juice. Keep the truck in one piece and make money with it.
I was very excited to view your video! I just picked up a 4 door version of this truck that won't run for fueling issues. I can't wait to get it home and start tinkering. These are pretty neat trucks!
What a shame for a great truck to sit so long. I'd love to have that truck and there's one just rotting away. :( This has become basically my favorite vehicle now to consider for conversion. Bit awkward but I think the potential with a crew cab version for an RV is tremendous. I wonder how loud / comfortable to drive it is.
@@stitchthisditchthat259 unscrew the grease fittings, pump oil can with acetone and transmission fluid 50/50 mix,stick oil can tip where grease fittings were start pumping, start truck, turn left, squirt more, turn right, squirt more,repeat, repeat, repeat, squirt, squirt,turn,squirt,turn. Keep going until it frees up. Then replace grease fittings. And grease, turn the wheels, grease some more turn wheels,grease. The mechanic was going to r3place the kingpins,big bucks. It didn’t need kingpins.
Another great video! Parallel is positive to positive negative to negative this keeps voltage 12 vdc and doubles the amps.... Series is positive from one battery to negative on the other battery, the other positive and negative terminals left will give you double voltage 24vdc and the same amps
I would definitely drain the fuel tank before attempting any cranking. Water from condensation in the fuel can be $7,000 in blown fuel injectors. Those isuzu water seperatros are minimal in effectiveness
Cool video. Was thinking of tackling a project like this. Might be able to get a 97' for dirt cheap...would need to work on getting salvo title for her.
When the battery voltage is low you always get that weird almost like a pump sound going on when you try and start it....or it has set there for a while. I put two solar panels in the front window with a charge controller to keep the batteries up!
That's saying sure would make you a nice little roll back if you took the Box off of it I found you a rollback bed to put on it and that would solve your problem with having to use your trailer all the time
Yup, 12v pos to pos, neg to neg, for 24v i use reg battery, but have 4 in my 6x6 an jump pos to neg, but trk cable hooks pos to pos, i gotta watch cause if hook wrong can make 48v sys vs 24 using 4 betteries
That steering problem he had are the king pins they are brutal to get grease in them.u have to grease them once a month.oh yeah power steering pump went bye bye.
You got lucky sell it quick very little info on these trucks unless you speak a foreign language, injection pump is a $2500 rebuild if you can find anyone had to ship out of state
Can't access through the interior, but you can check oil and coolant without tilting the cab. Tilting the cab is almost as easy as popping a hood though.
What OBD Scanner will read the error codes for this truck? I have tried a few scanners on my NPR but none of them want to work. any help would be much appreciated
I have an npr I call it a living nightmare.brake master cylinder went.oil line rotted out.heater core blew up domaged engine.starter went.king pins froze up and are a constant problem.back door jammed up.locking cab to frame cracked.no grease fittings for steering linkage.lug nuts brutal to get off.and it just broke down again.dont buy one used run.ive had more problems I can't remember them all.
They're reliable, but like all mechanical devices they're used and beat to death. You can't really buy these cheap and expect to put a full service workload on them and expect them to hold up. You can buy a beater one for light usage.
