Engine misfire in 4 cylinder Rodeo

My 2001 Isuzu Rodeo stalled out of nowhere about a week ago. After a few attempts, it started up again. Come to find out that all of the oil is going to one cylinder and that cylinder is misfiring. Not sure what the cause is. Maybe needs to be resealed. The check engine light is on and I got codes PO128, PO463, and PO507. Runs rougher than normal and has higher RPMs. Any help is appreciated.

Here's code P0128.Here's code P0463.Here's code P0507.I would check Code P0507 first.it may cause the other 2 to go off.

SOURCE: 2004 Rodeo Misfire on Cylinder 4

cylinder 4 is on the drivers side it is middle plug goes 2,4,6. it is possible for plug to go bad at mileage. look on the side of plug see if you can see a black mark on side this will be evidence of fire going down side of porcelain also look on plug wire for any trace of arcing. it is most likely a bad plug or wire on cyl 4

SOURCE: 2000 Honda (Isuzu Rodeo) Check Engine Light ? 4 Codes, Misfire/Throttle/EVAP ?

Hi Jack,

I am not an expert and I don't have the codes in front of me with the meaning but I can offer some advice and hopefully it will solve your problem. First keep the print out of the codes and take it/them with you. Have someone check the oxygen sensor. It's possible that all of the codes you are getting lead up to the computer (electrical issue). I sure hope this helps. Good luck and let me know how things turn out.

SOURCE: Failed Smog Test - 4 codes for 2001 Isuzu Rodeo

Tune it up and replace the 02 sensor that keeps setting the codes bank 2 sensor 1. Have your oil and filter changed right before you go for a retest to. That will clear up 3 codes P0300, 0155 and 0154. You might have to replace the fuel sending unit to get rid of P0463 but if the gauge works OK I'd leave it alone.

SOURCE: Cruise control & check trammission light comes on my 2001 Rodeo

I had that problem too and the issue was a loose wire connecting the engine control modude to the crankshaft sensor switch. The engine control module does not sense where the crankshaft position is when the wire moves, and that causes things to go snaky, such as the transmission and cruise lights coming on. This issue took a good mechanic in Syracuse one and a half weeks to find. Total cost was $425.00,$395.00 for labour, and $.99 for the new wire. Good luck!

The upper intake gaskets may be leaking. They are made of plastic and metal and will leak air. Do not remove the cover on very top of manifold when changing.

I have a 2001 Isuzu Rodeo, 4 cylinder manual. I am getting a P0303 "cylinder 3 misfire" code.

Very strange.
A fuel pump problem should affect all of the cylinders. It would be easy enough to check by using a fuel pressure gauge.
Code 303 means cylinder 3 is not producing power, so it could be fuel, compression, or spark.
Its possible the pressure in the tank is changing somehow, but I would expect to find the real problem has nothing to do with the fuel level in the tank.
Could even be something like a bad spot on the cam or crank causing the engine computer to not get a signal to fire that cylinder sometimes.
Or a problem with the EGR valve or some other vac issue.

I have a 2001 rodeo ,the car has 40500 miles on it it started missing and one cylinder did not have fire, 300, code 352 code replaced cps and coil , ran well for a coulpe weeks the same code came up same...

in several models you have to change 2 coils in time with each other, as defect of one affect the other, I think you have to change as mentioned in service manual 1&4 or 2&3 coils .

Which cylinder do I use to set the timing in a 2.2L Isuzu rodeo?

All timing on engines is always done on Number 1 cylinder. On an inline engine it is the very front cylinder nearest to the radiator. On a transverse engine it is the cylinder nearest to the belt drive pulleys.
