Greetings,
cylinder head cracked on my 4JG2-TC. I am in Malta, so access to parts is quite limited. I was quoted 2.2k euro for an original from Isuzu. While aliexpress has some for 150-250 bucks a piece.
I checked Autodoc and managed to find a replacement from FAI auto BCH038 ( http://catalogue.faiauto.com/parts/BCH038# ) which I hope should be better than an unknown version from Aliexpress. Also a very helpful person from UK suggested Milner off-road and they had a head with delivery to Malta : https://www.milneroffroad.com/isuzu/tro ... -head-bare . My mechanic suggests getting one which is an original isuzu even if used. I would not mind getting a used one but NOONE has original cylinder heads on their own, only whole engine together (as i think cylinder head is the primary victim either due to age or overheating).
If someone replaced head on 4JG2 could you please share which part they used and where did they obtain it?
I would appreciate if you could share your experience on the matter.
Thanks.
