1990 Isuzu Pickup XS review from North America
"I love the simplicity"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Head gasket at 106k.
Slave cylinder.
Leaf spring bushings (rear only).
Frame rust.
General comments?
My 48th Isuzu vehicle, I love these trucks. Had a few with 300k on them. Run forever, just need headgaskets (or a head if early series) every 100k or so. About the only major problem with the 4Z series motors.
