Rob,

I forgot to mention the reason I jumped in on your thread with my own problem.

You shouldn't worry about being off topic, raising an apparent non-Isuzu problem. This may have some relevence. 1988-91 Isuzu autos use the AW30-80LE. This trans is more commonly known as the Aisin Warner A340H. The A340H (so named) was used in early 4Runners, and Jeep Cherokees (named the AW4 for Chrysler).

I was just thinking that, if yours is the AW4, we may be suffering symtoms of the same problem.
