The serpentine belt on this
I can probably help you both. Check your powersteering pump. There is a bracket that connects it to the exhaust manifold. My braket broke and the pump adjusted forwards which allowed the belt to get chewed on. I can also help with the routing of the belt. If you have AC and power steering it travels this way, ( I can also give a picture with an email address). Put the belt in through the passenger side by the battery and loop it over the crank pully, now bring it around the water pump so that the inside of the belt is on the crank and the back of the belt is on the water pully, then it goes around the power steering and up to the AC, there is an idler pully between the altenator and the AC compressor, the belt goes under it, then over the altenator, lastly you'll need a 15 MM socket and will have to pull the tensioner to the driverside by pulling to the passenger side and puttin the belt on the outside, Use a long bar and watch that top radiator hose and the fan blades. Its a bit of a pain, but I've had to take my belt on and off so many times I don't have to look at the pictures. Plus the pictures are drawn sideways to the engine. If I'm feeling frisky I'll draw it on paint and post a link for it.
1991 rodeo starts chugging after engine has warmed
Mine had a similar issue. You might try changing the ignition control module in the distributor. I changed out several parts because every place that checked it said it was good. But I decided to change it and it ran fine afterwards. It should only cost around $30 for a basic unit, unless you have a shop install it. But it does sound like its something that's on the engine and has trouble operating when it gets hot.
My 95 rodeo is loosing oil pressure then heats up
There are a fw possibilities.
1. you have a cracked block and the oil is going in to the water system. To check this open the water cap ,When cold , and see if there is a milky substance in the water.
2. Look to see if there are any oily leaks around the valve pan areas.
3.Your oil pump may be failing.
Getting harder and harder to place into gear.
It seems like the clutch pressure plate has gone, not releasing the clutch plate once the pedal is operated.
The noise you hear, is it a screeching one or is it like the gears rubbing eachother.
If its a screeching noise thn its the release bearing and if its a heavier grinding noise thn its the gears.
Guess you will have to replace the clutch pressure plate, its highly recomended though to replace the pro-kit,i.e the clutch plate, pressure plate and the release bearing.
Good luck.
3.1 L TBI it got one injector totally open I check

Electrical problem?
if you have an automatic transmission, check to see that the lock up torque converter is not stuck in the lock up mode at idle.
1991 isuzu rodeo wont go into gear
I had the same problem and my fluid was fine! First try to bleed it (i went the easy way and bought a speed bleeder) if that doesn't do it i replaced my slave cylinder and it worked.
V-6 1991 Rodeo clutch remains engaged after
Ive never seen a slave cylinder get stuck. there is a lot of force against it from the clutch diaphram, but there is a first time for everything!! I have seen diaphrams on clutches go bad and "over-center" when depressed. watch the slave and see if its staying extended (unless yours is located on the throwout bearing and you can't see it) If it's on the outside of the bellhousing, you can easily change it if its bad. If not the transmission needs to be removed to get to it.
Brake problems..
i am not tryin to be smart but might i suggest the procurement of a chilton repair manual from your local auto parts store or online. It is not a difficult job but i prefer to have a manual for every car i own. It would be very difficult to walk you thru this step by step.This manual will save you money if you like to do your own maitenance. About 30.00
Truck dont mouve
Ok lets start with is your truck a 4x4 or 2wheel drive? if a 4x4 check to see if your 4wd shifter didn't get knocked into neutral and that it is engaged properly in 2wd mode... if it is a pushbutton check that as well..
Does the Shifter Feel normal you feel it engage? if yes then you know shifter linkage is fine problem lies somewhere else..
Next when did this happen while driving did you hear a bang and then nothing?? maybe you Blew out the rear or boke a driveshaft. or Universal joint? this all will be noisy
or maybe you burned the clutch to the point it melted? it will stink badly and seem to linger forever in the air
has it sounded lateley noisier and noisier if so mabe throwout bearing burned up and broke something under the truck
please respond back with more detail and your findings
good luck
