http://www.geocities.com/madisoneastclassof1993/amigo I found this site to be helpful for removing the non-removable hardtop on 2nd gen Amigos...
well follow these steps i found for converting a hard top to soft top.... just follow the directions in reverse.... the web page is: http://www.geocities.com/madisoneastclassof1993/amigo/
I am pretty sure that gen 2 amigos (97-03) are non-removable
the manufactures answer is no, but the answer to me is yes.... in order to remove it from a 98 or newer amigo you must remove the rear Glass window and that requires removing 1 thing of weather stripping from the vehicle, so if you dont mind that then the top can be removed.AnswerYes, my son has a 1999 Isuzu Amigo with a removable hard top. AnswerInterestingly, just last eve, after seeing an ad for a convertible one and being unfamiliar with the model, I was researching these vehicles. The seemingly expert discussion I read said that they only made 2 versions: Convertible and fixed hard top. That was because they made a study of Jeep CJ owners (it's most similar competition), which indicated something like 97% never removed the hardtop on those vehicles, and making the top removeable costs like $500 more and has engineering problems. The convertible Amigo has a canvas (supposidly) easily retractable top where the hartop portion would otherwise be. Unfortunately, it also has plastic windows.I own a 1992 Isuzu Amigo that has a removable hard top and the window is glass... In fact it only takes two bolts to remove it and it comes off pretty easy. I'm a girl and I remove it myself but, of course after I remove the bolts I need a little help to lift it off...
yes sir. 98 and 99s share the same top.
1998 Isuzu Amigo did not have the options to have a hard top. 1999-2003 had hardtops. yes you can uses a 99-03 hard top on a 1999 (I did) have to change some wiring and some bolts.
there should be numbers on your distributor cap inside and out
Removing the Amigo/Rodeo Sport hardtopRather than type it all out, here's the URL to a detailed set of step-by-step instructions, with photos. http://www.geocities.com/madisoneastclassof1993/amigo
For the 2.2 liter engine it's located between the fire wall and the engine near the top.
Directly on top of the motor. You need an Allen wrench to remove the black plastic panel from the top of the motor. Once you remove this cover, all (4) spark plugs are exposed. Note: You may have to move the air intake by unscrewing the air intake from the throttle body and and (1) bolt located between the fire wall and the air intake at the top.
YOu need to remove the belt off the front of the engine, it is under the plastic cover in the top. It has three wires plugged into it. On mine one was black and blue, one was blue, and one was green. I found one at a wrecking yard.
No...
The oil in a 1993 Isuzu Rodeo is put into the reservoir that is located on top of the valve cover. There is a cap that has to be rotated to remove it.
