Looks like a solid truck! Welcome!
Hello everyone!
Hello people I'm the new guy. Bought my first Isuzu last year for $3k, a 2WD 5 speed manual 1992 pickup. The truck has its original 2.3 motor with 133,500 miles. The previous owner had done away with all the emissions stuff. The carb is a newer Weber that it came with. New parts I have installed myself or had my mechanic replace include:
Clutch kit and flywheel, rear main seal. Starter, alternator. Upper/lower ball joints and front bearings. Brake rotors and pads. Fuel filter, adjusted the valves as they were pretty chatter last year. Valve cover gasket. Ngk plugs and wires. New tires on 16 inch older Tacoma stocks. New muffler no cat. Radiator and hoses, thermostat. Ignition switch. Tachometer and mechanical temp gauge. Full size spare with heat shield on exhaust pipe. Battery, marine terminals, 'big 3' wiring. Kenwood BT stereo and dash speakers. 6x9's in boxes behind seat. PO says he replaced timing belt, water pump and head at about 123k miles. Front and rear shocks.
Runs like a top and I'm extremely happy with it. Old basic truck. I got rid of a/c compressor and rats nest of wires and took all that LED Chinese junk lights out and returned to stock. Dude had wrong fuses and all, real scary. In safe hands now!

Really clean looking truck. These engines don't respond to over heating well so one recommendation I might mention. A lot of these trucks without air came with a single row radiator. If yours has one a good upgrade would be a dual row one. The 16 in wheels are a nice upgrade. Isuzu made some 16x7 alloys we nick named snowflakes that would look really good on yours. Can't see if you have a shroud on your radiator or if you have the bigger fan but those help also
