Re: What have I done

Chris, no need to panic! You get a lot of truck for the money with a second hand trooper. Like the other fellas said, keep an eye on the oil level until you get a handle on it. The 1998+ 3.2/3.5 usually consume oil on long hywy runs. You may burn none with your driving habbits. You wont know until you get into a routine. All 4x4 trucks require lots of maintenance. This forum is a great source of info for that!! If you find yourself adding LOTS of oil, go thicker. You will use less. Isuzu specs 15w40 or even 20w-50 is okay for temps 10degF and above. Gallon jugs of (heavy-duty truck) 15w40 can be had very reasonably.

G/luck
Joel
