Isuzu & canter 4x4 light trucks

FSH00 - Around 1997-99 is about the time most of the truck manufacturers went over to electronically-controlled fuel injection.
However, these systems are fairly reliable - it's the ever-increasing amount of electronic systems in the rest of the truck that will cause you more headaches than the electronic injection ever will.

Personally, I'd steer clear of the Canter from after 2003. Mitsubishi Fuso build quality went downhill from 2001 to 2005, when they had Daimler-Chrysler come in as a partner.

D-C at that time were having huge internal power struggles, a lack of vision, and conflicts in culture as a result of trying to merge European and American vehicle production and procedures.

Mitsubishi went downhill under the joint venture known as Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation, where D-C was a 43% partner.

The MFTBC products suffered with such major build quality and recall problems, Mitsubishi Motors Corp was obliged to transfer ownership of MFTBC to Daimler in 2005, as a result of financial damages imposed upon MMC due to the poor build quality and recall problems related to their products.

Daimler Trucks now own 89% of MFTBC, but they still have their share of problems, not the least of which is their new Daimler DT12 Automated Transmission - which, while it looks great on paper, is providing less-than-stellar performance, as regards reliability.

The old Mitsubishi Fusos were great trucks, up until the start of the D-C joint venture.

Cheers, Ron.
