bought a 2000 VX with no motor,
got a used engine form the salvage compression tested good,tore it down and took it to the machine shop. Turns out the crank is 60k off on the number one rod and main bearings,so i went to the auction and found a 2001 isuzu rodeo 4x4 clean no leaks great running engine with 166k,i though i could swap the engine out but the rodeo didnt make it home from the auction tranny went out.
So i bought a 1999 rodeo tranny from a friend
and decided to fix the rodeo sell it and buy a new long block for the VX
but it seems nothing will interchange with these parts, does anyone have any advice?
the 01 rodeo has 4 mulex plugs white,black,blue,and green
the black is a 16 wire on the VX but a 12 wire on the 01 rodeo,16 wire on the 99 rodeo
and the two sensors on the driverside of the tranny are wierd too
the vx and the 99 rodeo have a 5 wire round on the left a 4 wire square on the right,
the 01 rodeo has the four wire square on the left and a 6 wire round on the right,
at my witts end just want My Vx up and running
really need help guys
thanks
