My check engine light has been coming

Start by checking the EGR could be all clogged-up with carbon and inspect its passages or might not be coming on when needed.

But to be sure here is a guide to help us fix the problem

Please run down this guide and report back.

I can be driving and it acts like it cannot get fuel and slows down then all of a sudden it kicks and goes. When the check engine light is on it runs great, when the check engine light goes out it runs real bad.

1999 Isuzu Rodeo Question 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic

JUST STARTED RUNNING ROUGH AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS FLASHING

My check engine light has been coming on-will stay on for a day or two or three at the most and then go off for a while. This started in December, happened once-happened again in February. This month it has been on more than off so I finally went to have the codes checked. The Tech pulled code:

P0 0401
EGR Flow insufficient

Further diagnositcs are needed. (OUCH!)

Any suggestions before I open pandora's box and my bank account? Where should I start? Like many people, I am paycheck to paycheck and will need to budget for any major expenses. I am not mechanically inclined, but do know several people who are.

I have a couple of road trips planned soon, 700-1000 miles each. Other than fuel economy am I going to hurt anything by not having this fixed right away?

My check engine light came on. Oxygen sensor and AB something valve replaced. Check engine light came on again. A 2nd oxygen sensor was replaced. Now, the CEL just came on again. After $400 of repairs, Help! Please.

Can I use the key, on/off, trick to make engine light flash?

Engine Performance problem
1998 Isuzu Rodeo Question 6 cyl Manual 80603 miles

Bought 1998 Isuzu Rodeo from used car dealer (in NY) at 77,900 miles for $4,300. Did oil change within a week after getting the car. During the course of owning the car, several times the Check Engine light would come on and then went off on its own.

The car now has 80,600 miles. Brought back to dealer within 60 days cause the car's engine started knocking, roughly a month after oil change. We added 2 bottles of engine oil but the knocing did not go away. We stopped driving the car and brought it back. After having dealer's appointed mechanic to look at it, turns out the engine is gone, and we've been driving the car with NO OIL.

Now dealer offering to install a used engine but we need to pay $1,300 for the engine, and the dealer will cover $1,000 labor. Our car is under 3,000 miles and still within 60-day warranty but dealer said they're not covering damages to the car due to owner negligence. They said it was our fault to drive with no oil in engine, and it's generous of them to offer to cover $1,000 labor.

The used engine will have ONE YEAR warranty.

The car is in great condition inside and out, dealer gave us brand new brakes before we drove off the lot. Question is, should we invest $1,300 or just get rid of this car such as selling the parts. Is the dealer doing the right thing by covering only partial instead of the full cost of fixing the engine?

We're not mechanics, don't know much about cars (but we do get oilchange when it's due) and we trusted the car to have no problem since we did the oil change, etc. Please help us!

My truck stalled at a red light today, started right back up. When I got thru the light I pulled over to see what the problem was. As I was stting there ideling, the truck was surging. The RPM'S were pulsating between about 500-1500. Although the surging has seemed to have stopped, my check engine light has come on. Any ideas what I should check before taking to a repair shop. Thanks

1997 Isuzu Rodeo Question 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I just purchased a 97 Rodeo with 150000 miles and read the handbook. It states that if the oil pressure does not increase on the gauge when speed has increased then to not drive it, immediately. I had noticed that the gauge read a little less than halfway the whole 15 mile drive home. Do I have a problem? Also about halfway home the Check engine light came on, and stayed.

Yeah my 97 isuzu rodeo is having some difficulties, transmission is not shifting when it needs to be, its winding down gears when it should be engaging the clutch. Also as I was driving the other day my check engine light came on and a few seconds later my check transmission light came on, no noises no grinding no nothing. Same as it was before the lights came on. Other than those issues. The throttle response isnt good, and the engine is'nt producing its max power and for some reason its averaging below 10 if not right on 10 mph. Something is wrong with it.

No check engine light, only oxygen sensor light. There are no error code on the obd1. Gas milage has drop 30 %. No smelly fumes from the exhaust. Vehicle runs good, just uses a lot more fuel. All other sensor seem to be working and there is no starting issues.
