Maybe just re-do some of his steps? Crank it by hand, add some fresh oil (while cranking), check any pipes for blockage or misfiring spark plugs, starter motor?! Rebuilt engines - if with new pistons and rods and seals tend to be very hard on start-ups cause of friction, parts needs to work themselves together. Also distributor caps and fuel filters can be a dud from factory!
I have a 99 Isuzu Trooper it just won't stay started(5years of sitting) but when it does start it runs beautifully/ quiet I really like this vehicle it runs better than my other vehicle which is a 2018 ......

Could have had an obstruction in the exhaust pipe , maybe mouse nest or something at first, causing engine stalling, but as exhaust was rusted, it blew a massive hole in itself, or simply fractured due to massive corrosion, and then the engine seemed to run without stalling. It sounded like a drivebelt ancillary was seizing at first too, maybe the waterpump or PAS bearings failing, but that seemed to right itself after engine warmed up. Sounded very loud without the mufflers, and definitely not firing on all cylinders!
@@del-boysnostalgiatvads7416 isuzu made their engines and opel used them for their cars SO isuzu isnt opel, and opel used isuzu engines back in the 1990, when opels were somewhat good
A very underrated Japanese car company. There's just something about Japanese car makers with their quality, Toyotas, Hondas, Mitsubishis, Isuzu's, Subarus, Mazda's, and Old Nissan's/Datsun's are just unkillable. We had an ISUZU Rodeo from 2001 and it ran very well until some sh**ty Buick LaCrosse hit us in the back and then on top of that a (2004) Ford F-Series hit us in the front. Could've kept going for even longer, that's it makes me sad, it had 203 and something thousand miles on it. Very good V6 and transmission. And our neighbor still has their 1999 Trooper working.
@@VramanNoodles i have my daily driver isuzu rodeo and i love it...an amazing vehicle..and the old datsun/nissan and also toyota cressida etc. Run forever
Hahah, this looks like so much fun 😃 done this to an old frontera a few years ago, the only difference was that it looked a bit better on the outside, but it was missing the whole exhaust, the front diff was missing, and it had no license plates ( the car was out of business for a few years), i made it run, then drove it home 200kms on fake plates, at night, including the motorway at 160kmh tempo 😂😂 maaan it was the loudest thing ever 😂 my girlfriend was following me in a diesel e34, what isnt a silent car by any means, and she said she only heard the opel all the way 😂 it got home though, without any problems, i was surprized, it wasnt even overheating

My dad has had a few of these, he currently has the newer 3.1 diesel one, unfortunately in the U.K. a lot of the early 2.8 tdi diesel ones got broke and engines were used in land rovers.
2:08 that's one good engine, 8 years sat & it's still holding oil pressure lol Reminds me of the story about Rolls Royce engines being that close tolerance that sometimes you could just switch on the ignition and the engine would fire on whatever cylinder was still on compression haha. Guess some folk believed it too.
That was exactly the first car I ever drove. My dad gave me lessons in it to give me a headstart for my license on a closed off lot. I hated the long gear shift and it was a thirsty beast. Fond memories.
It's never a proper test drive of the four wheel drive until you get stuck in the mud 😊 As long as you have a tractor to pull you out. Lots of fun! 🚙🚜😎
Thanks for the upload. I just bought a 2.6 4 liter with 215k, it is the 4x4 5 speed manual, I tested 1 cylinder compression without putting oil in it and it dropped 127 psi, I was in a hurry and didn't test the other 3, the engine ain't throwing smoke nor anything. I'll be using it for short trips in a farm I have and light duty work, not severe, in a weather that goes in summer at 34°c - 45°c max and in winter from 0°c occasionally to 25°c. I don't have the manual, my question is, I've seen in the oil recommendation search of several brands such as amsoil, shell, mobil, Kroon and they recommend from 5w30 synthetic to 20w50 mineral. What would you suggest I'll use? I was thinking 5w30 synthetic helix hx8 dexos1 gen 2 with 850 zddp max in winter and in summer 5w40 mobil 1 European formula with 1000ppm zddp mobil fs or 0w40 mobil 1 fs?
I have three Isuzus on the road. A 91 with 370+, a 95 with 190k, and a 98 with 210k. All great trucks. I live in semi-arid, no salt, Colorado. So I just keep the fluids fresh and they keep running fine☺️
He said in another comment section that he would like to restore some and some others he tries to sell them, and the ultimate goal would be collecting some of these cars but he has no garage to keep them stored appropriately
Yikes! That sound on startup can’t be anything but bad news for the engine. It sounded like you tried to breed a cat and mix it with a cactus a cow and a dog. Nice video.

The fuel pump only runs when the ecu sees activity on the altinator. Unplug the green round plug on the back and the fuel pump runs
That is incorrect, the ecu has no control over the fuel pump on an engine this old
@@Imthebestaround88 the fuel pump relay is tied in to the output of the alternator. if the engine stops so does the fuel pump. I have 6 of these cars.
