1997 Isuzu Oasis Service and Repair Manual

Little changed for the second Oasis model year, and that consistency helps: the 1997 van shares its 2.2L SOHC inline-four, four-speed automatic and double-wishbone suspension with the Honda Odyssey of the same year. S and LS trims continued, both with four hinged side doors and seating for up to seven. This service and repair manual covers the 1997 Oasis with procedures, specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams, diagnostics and maintenance schedules, giving you Isuzu-labelled data that lines up with the Honda parts you are likely to buy.

Known issues on the 1997 Oasis. Two recalls are on federal record. Both concern front suspension ball joints, lower and upper, that can wear prematurely and, in the worst case, separate and let the front suspension collapse. NHTSA has also logged 9 owner complaints, most often about the electrical system and the engine and cooling system. Ball joint inspection, replacement and torque figures are covered in the manual's front suspension section.
