sir i have one question, what is the diff between direct injection & indirect injection engine?crosswinds have a direct injection engine but they say its old school engine compared to the crdi engines that other most brands are now using.

i've tried driving a crosswind with automatic transmission & noticed that it has a slugggish acceleration & consumes more fuel compared to the other.

This would best illustrate (and answer) your query:

INDIRECT INJECTION

PRE-COMBUSTION CHAMBER:

SWIRL-TYPE CHAMBER

DIRECT INJECTION

Hope this helps!

Sluggish ba sir compared to Manual Trans? If yes that's because in MT you can control when to shift. . . but then again is it just the accelaration part? kasi mabagal talaga ang crosswind it has only 85HP. . . the engine is not built for speed. . .

Pero pwede ring may problema like the engine needs tune-up or there's a need to change ATF. . .

Yup! I'll just contact you!

yes sir benz yung mismong handle ko is chrome but the surrounding part is plastic dun yung may crack.

Just like to inquire between the direct and indirect injection discussion, does this mean that the crosswind is a fuel-injected engine? I am asking because I am planning to buy a fuel-injection cleaner that will be added to a full tank of gas and is supposed and advertised/claimed by the cleaner to clean the injection system. Hope folks you can assist. Thank you.

Talagang madami matutunan dito at unti-unti nang lumalawak na pagkakaintindi ko sa sasakyan lalong-lalo na sa'yo sir Benzmizer sa walang sawang pagtulong sa noob na tulad ko....

Siyanga pala, Ive just figured out how to fix small cover of my Mags... Yung sa gitna... Di ko kasi alam tawag dito...

Using the hot air w/c we're using pangtanggal nang cellphone components, I simply heat the locks and gently bent it palabas nang kunti and fit it sa mags...

Mas maganda 'to kaysa sa super glue kasi baka mag lo-loose din sa huli ang takip lalong-lalo na pag mababasa palagi....

Eto nga pla pic nang hotair or rework station na makikita palagi sa mga cellphone shops...
Di rin kasi pwede hair drier/blower kasi malaki ang dulo... Baka matunaw ang takip...

Yes, all ISUZU vehicles are already Direct Injection. A little trivia, ISUZU was the first auto brand to introduce the Direct Injection technology in compact engines.

Thank you for your vote of confidence.

As I always tell people who appreciate my contributions, the pleasure is mine. Thou not all my posts may be factual (for some are my assumptions), I try my darn best to try and help others because I, myself, was once a newbie and I know the feeling of "not knowing" -- and it's frustrating.
