1982 Isuzu Imark 4 Door Sedan 1.8 Diesel on 2040-cars
Year:1982
Mileage:198000

I am ready to part with this zippy little car. Its been parked for a
while and I cant find the time to get it back on the road so I am
needing to let it go and move onto other things.
It starts (sometimes immediately, sometimes after a bit of cranking) and runs great. 198,xxx on the motor. The transmission shifts smoothly through all gears. This car was actually fairly zippy when it was on the road. The rear end or something at the rear of the car is making a terrible sound again (I replaced the entire rear axle last summer) and I just cant get the time to look for parts for this thing anymore. The brakes are soft, Ive bled the system a few times now and replaced a leaking break cylinder, may just need a more thorough bleeding then I can do alone. Electrically, its kind of a mess. The gauges go back and forth from working to not, the temp gauge shoots right up as son as the thing starts. Heater core leaking, heater motor works but wiring is not functional. Someone before me hacked the thing and had it wired on a toggle switch, but this is no longer connected. Trunk is rotting, probably leaking around the gasket. Its the kind of thing that could be fixed in an after noon with some fiberglass mesh and marine grade liquid epoxy stuff. Add it to the list of things I never got around to. Body is pretty solid, some surface rust in spots (like the hood, and doors), nothing rotten through yet, undercarriage is almost like new. Front driver side fender is damaged, dented before I bought it. Whoever did it was able to hammer it back out, but its not perfect... The grill is falling apart from 30+ years of weather, I have an extra thats in better shape but needs some epoxy... NEW: battery, new front shocks, new tires (probably 5k on them) new tie rod (not sure which side anymore, have receipts) Comes with a BUNCH of extra parts : starter, 2 alternators (one bad, possibly repairable), injection pump, injectors, front and rear windshield, grill (which I was going to repair, but could easily be done and look way better then the one that's on there), a myriad of lights, light covers, 2 fuel doors (hinges busted), dash parts, incomplete instrument console (tach missing) While these things can be hard to find parts for, Ive seen these engines in a number of different vehicles (short bed isuzus, mazdas, etc), and this one would make a good transplant candidate, paired with the transmission. If you have a parts car, or can find a rear end for this car, you should be able to get many more years out of it. If nothing else, this car (and all its extra parts) could be parted out for probably double the buy it now price, I don't have time for that. Maybe you do?!? |

GM recalls over 230,000 more Trailblazer-family SUVs over door electronics
Sun, 16 Jun 2013Back in August, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced a recall on the General Motors GMT360 SUVs (Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X) ranging from the 2005 to 2007 model years and the 2006 GMT370 SUVs (Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL) due to potential fires associated with the driver's door module. Initially limited to 250,000 units sold or registered in 20 Snow Belt states (and the District of Columbia), the recall has now been expanded to include an additional 193,000 of these SUVs in the US and, according to The Detroit News, 40,000 more sold outside the US, including Canada and Mexico.
Like the original recall, the issue is still a faulty driver's door module that can short out, which could lead to a fire. The Detroit News is reporting that, out of the 443,000 units being recalled, GM says that there were 58 fires that caused 11 minor injuries, and the expanded recall accounted for six fires and one injury. Despite the lower number of fires, the recall notice recommends that owners park their vehicles until the recall repairs has been performed.
On recalled units with functional modules, the repair consists of a protective coating being applied to the module, while vehicles with modules that are not working properly will have the driver's door module replaced. The official recall notice is posted below, and it includes contact information for customers of all five brands.
GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
Junkyard Gem: 1992 Geo Storm
Mon, May 15 2017GM's Geo brand existed from the 1989 through 1997 model years. While mostly remembered today for the Suzuki Cultus-based Metro (which continued to be sold with Chevrolet badging until 2001), there were also Geo Prizms (California-built Toyota Corollas), Geo Spectrums (Isuzu I-Mark), Geo Trackers (Suzuki Sidekick), and Geo Storms (Isuzu Impulse). Storms are very rare now, but I found this one in Colorado last week. The idea of the Geo brand was that it would lure young car buyers in a way that wouldn't be possible with stodgy brands such as Oldsmobile or Buick. While GM never sold as many Geos as hoped, enough hit American roads that they were pretty numerous for a while. 1980s-style pink-and-blue graphics remained relevant into the early 1990s. I'm not sure if these pink decal stripes were done at the factory, at a dealership, or later on in someone's back yard. The Storm GSi was the factory-hot-rod version, but this is an ordinary Storm with the 95-horsepower, 12-valve engine. Automatic transmission, of course. It never made it to 100,000 miles. The car seems to be in good shape, so perhaps something broke at about age 10 and it sat in a garage for the next 15 years. This content is hosted by a third party.
