The best answer is to get a shop manual from auto parts store. The alignment is crucial so I would not want to trust someone's memory. You need a good picture.

The Head Bolt Torque

Torque sequence ----------------- front ' 7 3 1 5 9 ' of ' ' engine ' 8 4 2 6 10 ' ----------------- Step 1: torque bolts in sequence to 18 Ft/Lbs Step 2: turn bolts in sequence an additional 90-degrees Step 3: turn bolts in sequence an additional 90-degrees Step 4: turn bolts in sequence an additional 90-degrees recheck final torque in sequence

1998 Isuzu Truck Rodeo 2WD 3.2L MFI DOHC 6cyl

The Head Bolt Torque

Torque sequence -------------- front ' 6 1 3 7 ' of ' ' engine ' 5 2 4 8 ' -------------- Step 1: torque to 20 Ft/Lbs Step 2: torque to 47 Ft/Lbs recheck final torque in sequence

Heres two diagrams for aligning the timing gears for timing belt, this is for a 1999 rodeo with the 3.2 engine, hope this helps,one diagram is for the cams and the other is for the crank gear,

These engines are equipped with a Distributorless Ignition System (DIS). No adjustment is possible

there should be a dot on either cam shaft and a marking on the belt that line up. http://www.autozone.com/autozone/repairinfo/repairguide/repairGuideContent.jsp?chapterTitle=Engine+Mechanical+Components&partName=Engine+Mechanical&pageId=0900c1528002abcd&subChapterTitle=Timing+Belt+Cover%2C+Belt+%26amp%3B+Sprockets&partId=0900c1528002ab6d
hope that helps. one of the easiest cars I've ever timed

I dont know how many times you tried turning it over with it being out of timing but to many times will kill the compression so be careful with it. Most of the time when I need timing marks I go to chiltondiy.com

My sincere apologies for the severly delayed response.
I am personally going back to answer your unanswered questions. I have only been on this site for the past 4-months as a free contributor.

I do not know if you still need this information, however I am answering it in case you still do.

Click on the following direct Link. It has several Diagrams for your 1998 Isuzu RodeoTiming Belt. Included are step-by-step reagrding how to tighten it. There are also Photo's.

As far as how to install: It would take literally dozens and dozens of Pages using this type of forum on the Step-by-Step Procedures on Installion and Putting back the Engine together; including Torque Specifications of all Bolts and Nuts. I would strongly suggest purchasing a Haynes or Chilton's Manual, available at most auto parts store for $20-$25. They have the complete guidelines, diagrams, and phots you will need.
