Hi Isuzu Hilander Owners, Tsikoters,

I got this random experience on my Xtrm hilander, when I attempt to do change gear, before I can transfer to another gear, the engine shut off. One time, I am running fifth gear, and try to change to 4th, before I can engage to 4th, engine shuts down, another one is from 3rd gear, tried reducing to 2nd, before I able to go to 2nd, engine shuts off, same thing, though upon starting it back, it starts, but I need to step the accelerator to pump some fuel... Could it be a dirty fuel filter? no chance to do the checking yet, but just in case someone here got the same experience, kindly advise.

thanks.

perhaps it's fuel starvation. when was the last time you replaced your fuel filter?
that would perhaps be the cheaper problem. the other problems might be more expensive..

I replaced the fuel filter 6 months ago. I will try to replace it this week. The more expensive one, what could it be?

Ok here's the update...after my negative findings on my DIY tests on "Parasitic Load Draw" I decided to take the case to an auto electrician. He conducted the same tests that I did and found out that the alternator is the culprit, since the Alternator's Voltage Regulator is working fine. He was so sure that the alternator is not producing the much needed juice to power up the onboard electronics ie aircon, radio, headlight, wiper etc. The Hilander's stock alternator indicated an 40A rating dunno why it doesn't produce that much power but may be because of old age. He rewinded it using "larger" wires so as to raise the amp to 60-65 levels. I asked him to show me thru the multimeter the actual amp of the newly rewinded alternator but couldn't do so as he probably doesnt know how to and I don't know too.

After the rewinding works we tested the vehicle and its NOW juicing the way it should..during idle with the headlight, aircon, radio and wiper turned ON it registered 11.8.-12.6+ volts and further goes up during revs. While further rising up 13-14V with the electricals off and revs rising to 2.5k rpm.

brader, 40 ampere talaga ang stock alternator fitted to ja1. highest draw would be the air conditioning (approx 10 amps siguro, headlights about 6 amps, lower amps for some accesories, etc.)

malamang walang induction type meter (yung clamp ammeter) yung technician kaya hindi nya maipakita sa iyo. besides mahal yung may DC ampere function na mataas ang current rating (say 100 Amps DC). karamihan kasi ng murang clamp meter is rated to 10 or 20 amps in DC mode. sa AC wala problema. kaso DC current ang auto electrical.

too many points of entry for air to enter kasi sa fuel injection system.

1. malulutong na hoses (supply and return)
2. loose clamps (supply and return)
3. sa intake hose sa fuel tank
4. pin hole leak sa steel lines
5. sa mga union nuts, etc.
6. sa drain plug or sa primer ng water sedimentor
7. or may intermittent connection problem sa shut off valve ng injection pump. sa kakavibrate e nag-loloose ang connection or dahil sa corrosion.
8. leaky injection pump

or maaring sa sobrang dumi ng fuel filter e nahihirapan pumasok ang fuel papuntang injection pump lalu na kung high rpms.

hindi naman kaya overheating condition iyan?

overheating, hinde naman kasi ang baba nung temp gauge (presuming ok yung gauge ko) wala na din thermostat yung radiator.. possible cguro fuel filter.. still not able to clean again the water separator and replace the fuel filter. i'll confirm once na palitan ko na mga pwedeng palitan.. though so far, i did not experience it to date. thanks for the inputs.

* aioshin na experience ko na and ganyang situation na palaging namatay engine ko. I tried changing my fuel filter pero ganun pa rin then the mechanic suggest to clean the fuel tank then Whooolla! Andun pala ang culprit napakadumi na pala ng tangke ok. Parang kumpol2x na gel na maitim na kailangan pa na powdered detergent at 2 bottles of liquid Sosa na panglinis. After nun Balik normal na except yung fuelhose na rubber na nag connect sa fuel tank need na daw Palitan. May mabilihan ba yan dito sa Davao? my ride pala is 2004 crosswind limited edition.

Ayos, will add it to my Bucket List...

Change fuel filter - DIY
Clean water separator - DIY
Clean fuel tank - Shop, i'm not confident to do it.
Have the fuel injector check by qualified tech.

Nice... Menos gastos pag minsan mag DIY tayo. Sa Petron carcare ko pinagawa malapit sa camp catitipan ang fuel tank cleaning mag 1200 ang charge Nila whole day na yun.

good day to all, just want your opinions and suggestions regarding my hilander xtrm 00. any inputs is highly appreciated, maraming salamat.

1. alternator 40amps - plan to change it to 110amps, kasya kaya sa engine bay?
2. window glass rubber runner - yong rubber guide na nasa loob ng door shell dinadaanan ng glass pababa at pataas.magkano kaya yon, sa nakapagpalit na.
3. window glass guide - yong nakapahalang sa labas ng window, kinakalawang ang both ends.magkano din kaya?
4. mausok pag running idle- even after injection pump calibration, nozzle replacement, engine valve seal at piston ring replacement, change oil, oil filter, fuel filter, clean air filter. mahirap ipasa sa emision test. sa hatak no problem, malakas pa rin despite sa age ng vehicle still reliable and runs 13-14kms/l.

Same vehicle. Yung sa bintana nareplace na both driver at passenger side a few years back. Mga 2-3k ata sa banawe although yung right side lang oem. Yung sa driver side bwan na di pa dumadating yung inorder so had to make do with what's available. Yung generic lang. Liit kasi yung guide di kasya yung sa crosswind, etc. Trim2 na lang to accomodate the bends.

Sa usok, mausok talaga. Workaround is rev hard once in a while, linisan ang tambucho, at 2t every other full tank. Hinuli ako ng asbu at hpg, passed both tests so i guess kahit mausok basta pasok sa limits ok naman. Nakakahiya lang minsan na mausok. Di pa nabubuksan yung sa amin though. Hanggang tune up lang...orig pa mga piston rings, etc.

Ganda ng konsumo mo...ako tracking for 2 years average ko 10kpl lang talaga. Pero pure city driving edsa/c5...at medyo bitin na sa hatak. Anong fuel gamit mo sir?

[dr. d]

your alternator is good for only 40 amps??!! my old VW used to do only 35 amp!

[n_spinner06]

Yup medyo mahina. Kahit stock accessories pag nastuck sa traffic medyo hirap either kung full yung aircon sa tanghali during summer o pag gabi na nakabukas ilaw tapos idle lang sa trafic. Pag mahina batt d na aandar kinabukasan. Hahaha. Pag tumatakbo la na prob though kahit bukas pa lahat. Kryptonite lang talaga yung traffic na wlang galawan ng ilang oras.

nawala ang usok sa dipstick pero ang usok sa tailpipe konti lang ang nabawas pero lumakas ang hatak at nag improve ang fuel consumption. dati kasi before top overhaul 11-12kms/liter lang sya, after naging 13-14kms/liter na.
