Does it have enough power to get out of it's own way?

(Just KIDDING, I'm a fan of the little Isuzu diesels.)

No, it has less power. 2.2 Isuzu diesel with no turbo has the power of a 1.6 or 1.8 gas engine.

I have been driving a 85 s15 reg cab with a 2.2 diesel for almost 4 years now and I love it. 20 something horse power and it shows. I have saved a ton of money on fuel. Paid 1 hundred bucks for it and drove it home. I surprise a lot of folks with it not many knew gm made a small diesel.

I've got the 2.2 in a 2WD S10 and also in a 4WD PUP. I pretty much get 30 MPG no matter how I drive. The 2.2 is a great little engine but parts are gettting scarce. Never really needed anything beyond glow plugs and filters, but if I ever do - it might be the end for the engine. Isuzu built the 2.2 from existing gas engines and that's why parts are so limited. They look similar to Isuzu reefer engines, but are totally different when it comes to parts.
