Hello all.. I have a 02 Isuzu Rodeo LS 3.2L v6 4x4. I have used the search button and read a few others thread but havent been able to get any info that would cure my problem.. I have had multiple problems the past few months. My car would run then stall so i had the EGR valve changed and solved that issue.. Next I started having (starter) problems so i examined my battery it was relatively pretty new within 2 months battery was good and turned out to be starter so replaced that.. Starts fine now.. Other problem I am having is on cold start when I accellerate it feels like it doesnt wanna move its almost like it has no balls very sluggish.. The check enguine light was coming on so i brought it to my buddy who ran a tester. And results told me that it was the mass air flow sensor and the throttle position sensor. I have successfully replaced both of those but hasnt done any better.. If anyone has any solutions or recomendations I am open to try..
thanks in advance.

I wonder if your tranny is low on fluid?

The tranny fluid is up to level..

Also i did notice that the wire terminals were corroded during the switch out of the starter.. I cut the terminals from fuse and main and put them in baking soda and water to get rid of the acid.. I did notice that it still goes back maybee one inch of corrosion still under the wire do you possibly think that the power would make the vehicle run like this???

Yes, Isuzu trannies will do funny things with weak electrical systems.

Also does in feel like the winter button is on?
