Re: 2000 Isuzu Rodeo Timing belt/Tranny question.

Did you break the belt?

It's not uncommon to get 100K + out of the belt. It is an interference engine. You should change the belt, water pump, tensioner and its pulley, idler pulley.

You check the tranny fluid level with the higher of the 2 plugs on the bottom of the tranny pan. You start it cold, let it idle a couple of minutes, put the truck in N, pull the top plug. If a little trickles out, the level is good. If none comes out, you pump in some fluid until it starts leaking out and replace the plug. Loads of info available if you search.
