the reason why there are 2 12V batteries yet still there's 12 volt rather than 24 is because the batteries are hooked in parallel, when the batteries are pigtailed together like that then a negative on one battery with a pigtail to both batteries hooked negative negative positive positive, is a parallel hookup that keeps the voltage the same but doubles the amps to crank it over, can still start on one big battery on a warm day but in the winter... not so much especially since the proper diesel engine oil is 15W-40 which is molasses in freezing temperatures and diesel having twice the compression ratio of a gas engine it takes more amps to start it
I run mine with a single battery someone took one of the battery’s and the connector cable so I slammed a single battery in and never had problems starting mine
Thinking of buying a Isuzu or Hino to start a towing company. Looking to get a Isuzu rollback to tow cars. Is isuzu reliable, and what do you say about Hino as well? Thoughts?
pretty good replacement for a Farm Truck.. 5.2L 4 cylinder diesel gives enough power and torque to haul 5 tons of farm stuff around and still get around 17-25MPG's 🤷♂
That an in-line 4 or 5? Always liked those trucks. Way underrated in what they’re capable of. I’ve been looking for one for awhile without luck. Going to have to buy a hino instead
That was a water separator filter you replaced. The fuel filter is on the top rear of your engine. (The other white filter. You have the short one.) I would replace ASAP. Looks nasty. The rod in front of your battery's slides out with a wide crush sleeve. (hollow pipe). I have a 01 NPR-HD
the Mitsubishi Version is even more of an Oddity the Japanese Market ones have an option to have a 2.0L NA 4 cylinder Petrol Engine rated for 1.5-2.5 tons
Those trucks have amazing turning radius. With a little TLC you have a decent work truck.
It's looking like a solid truck. Possibilities are endless!
He’s sick and tired of fed-ex. He’s going to get his own parcels from now on!
Now you're thinking! You might say I'm FedUp!
Please please please have that decal put on the side of that truck. Fed-Up Express!

It's a 4 cylinder. Not sure what I'm going to do with this one yet! It is a cool truck though!
Isuzu never manufactured a 5 cylinder. You might be thinking of the GMT-355 rebadge, whose running gear was GM.
Danny the brakes do work off the power steering I bet the pump is bad not putting out enough pressure.
how did you find it?

Thanks for the tips!
Wow, I never knew that those trucks had 6.0 LS's in them. I thought they were all Diesel
Yelp, the gas ones did!

You had it on before you must found a way to get it going
Boss hnd b binebenta yan
What are your plans for this turning it into a rollback?
Not sure yet!
Handy tripod so we can see all what you are doing but good content
Ya it was going I remember now
I guess the reason why you bought it was to restore it and sell it for a profit
Not sure yet, if someone likes it more than me I'll sell it. If not it's a cool truck, something different!
Engine swap it into the Bronco
