SERVICE INFORMATION
Effective December 11, 1989, American Isuzu Motors Parts Distribution Network will begin a remanufacturing program of selected OEM service parts.
Under this program, starters, alternators, brake calipers and turbocharger are eligible for return and credit. After December 31, 1989, Isuzu Parts
Distribution Centers will not accept any turbocharger cores, as they must be returned to your facing core retrieval hub.
This Service Bulletin contains core acceptance criteria and core return procedures. Refer to Parts Information Bulletin AIPDN-PTS-A35-89 for parts
applicability and instructions on how to complete the AIPDN Core Return/Credit Authorization Request Form.
As of December 11, 1989, applicable parts will be available as remanufactured only. If you order one of the applicable units by its previous "new" part
number (8-9XXXX-XXX-X) after December 11, you will receive a remanufactured unit (2-9XXXX-XX-X). All Genuine Isuzu Remanufactured Parts
meet original equipment specifications. Component parts for new units will continue to be available as shown in the Parts Catalog.
Contact your Zone Service and Parts Manager if you have any questions about the AIPDN Remanufacturing Program.
