There is water on the oil dipstick on your 1994 Isuzu trooper what might be happening?

Water in the oil is a symptom of failure of the headgasket. You should have the engine checked by a mechanic to verify this issue; there is also the possibility that a crack in your engine is allowing coolant to mix with oil. There are no places where water should be able to leak in from the engine or from the outside of the oil pan, valve cover or dipstick which would not be obvious due to oil leakage. I changed my headgasket in a 98 Jeep Cherokee for about $800 dollars; it would have been around $1500 to have a mechanic do it. You may also be able to use a commercially availalable chemical engine sealant but this is not always successful. That may cost as much as $200 dollars; maybe less. I got about 3 weeks out of a sealant before I had to go for the rebuild. If you plan to keep the vehicle (or, like in my case, need to keep it) I suggest the rebuild. If you plan to diagnose/fix this problem yourself, you will need a Chilton's or similar guide, access to a good machine shop with a knowledgable machinist, tools and enough money to pay for the engine rebuild kit, a torque wrench, oil, filter, spark plugs, wire, distributor and rotor. Best of luck!

HOW-TO REPLACE THE HEAD GASKET ON A ISUZU TROOPER 1989?
The intake manifold, exhaust manifold, and head must be removed. This is a major repair. On a 26 year old vehicle you might as well do a complete engine rebuild once you remove the head. The vehicle may not be worth the cost of the repair.

How do you get diesel out of an Isuzu trooper?
you have to drop the tank, flush it, replace the fuel pump, flush the fuel lines (if you ran it before realizing you had put diesel in it) replace the filter and hope you didnt get any sprayed into the piston area by the fuel pump. if so you might as well buy a new engine.
How do you check the transmission fluid in a 1997 Honda passport automatic?
There is no dipstick for the transmission, Honda/Isuzu calls it "lifetime fluid". They really don't even specify a fluid change for the life of the vehicle. You might want to call Honda and see if they have changed the recommended fluid change or check intervals. When I worked at a Honda dealer, there was no certain time or mileage specified. Neat huh? That's what happens when Isuzu gets into the mix......
