Welcome to the site! We've had several members from Hawaii over the years.

I wouldn't worry with the plugs. They work or they don't. I don't know what "that mystery stuff" is, but I've never heard of oiling plugs. After sitting two years, anything that's 30+ year old rubber could be pretty fragile. I'd watch closely for oil leaks. And there's an oil supply line g...

Welcome to the site. What part of the world is your friend's P'up in?

Jack

I assumed that big one was some sort of generic hose. But after spending hours trying to find one locally, I ended up ordering it from Jerry.

Jack

Draft tube. It attaches to "the atmosphere" at the bottom, and directs blowby fumes (and oil droplets) downward.

The other, smaller one probably takes oil from the separator back to the oil pan.

Jack

Wait a minute. We're missing something here. This is a 2wd 5-speed, right? Unless you're running undersized tires, it should never be "screaming", especially at interstate speed. Somewhere, I posted a pic if the RPMs at different highway speeds. With the standard 3.73 rear end, the NA dies...

Does this help?

Mark,

Welcome to the site. If you're not already a member there, you may want to join the PlanetIsuzoo.com forum as well. That crowd seems to really have an appreciation for the 2.6L gas burner.

I have family in Abington, is that anywhere close to you?

Jack

Good to hear from you again. By all means, please post pics!

Jack

Have you looked at the wiring schematic?

And I agree with Andy, I hope someone else will weigh in. Maybe someone has had the same issue (I haven't).

Jack

I don't even know what questions to ask...but I'll try. The "horrible popping sort of sound"... By "popping sound" did you mean "pop-pop-pop-pop" etc.? Or was it "pop" and nothing else, just dead? Oh, I think I see. Second time, "small pop". I'm gonn...

Welcome to the site, GW.

What engine is in it?

Jack

Welcome to the site, unior. Was that supposed to be "Junior"?
