Building lists of 4JX1 info and specs

Hey All

The purpose of this thread is to assemble accurate info on the 4JX1 and make it a first port of call for info. We all have bit and pieces of the puzzle and there are threads but it’s a bit all over the shop – jackablue (many thanks) gave the idea by his bringing some threads together in the sticky in this forum.

So firstly; Take the poll please, its a lot of work to do this idea and we'd like to get some feedback on if you'll all support the project

There is the issue of proprietary info that GMH feels should not be "out there". IMO, silly them for ever releasing the service CD's as an authorised aftermarket purchase in the first place to both private purchasers and repairers. IMO, though, to lock up info on an orphan model that they are de-stocking parts and backup for is petty and alienating. Then there is the fact that Isuzu Trucks, Australia has the (ex-Rodeo) 4JH-1TC in the Sitec 125 NPR trucks that makes their position on information just plain silly. And that’s just one example. But enough whinging.

But we have to respect GMH’s intellectual property. So then, cut and paste from GMH info and formats would be out.
Pete is going to make this new thread a sticky. If anyone has any accurate info, post it. The info will be sorted.

This means:

1) Part numbers, original or aftermarket supplier.
2) Trouble shooting procedures
3) Repair information (torque values…)
4) Fault codes
5) Alternate part number
6) Repair procedures – like DaneH’s contribution on the ORPS procedure (kudos!)

When there are enough entries, it will be assembled into either a blog or articles system that Pete is still hunting up. Further expansion to the 6VE1 and the Jackaroo in general might be the go but we’ve got to start somewhere first.

I’m thinking alphabetical order but any suggestions?

I’m figuring if we don’t look after ourselves, no one else is going to do it for us?

Go Well,
Six Rivers
