I put on a new timing belt but its not firing like it should. I rode the rodeo and it would act like something is stoping it to go. whenever I stop and try to go again, I would have to mash the gas in order for it to go. it also got red hot the rodeo when I drove it whats wrong I need help

Hi,
Isuzu seem to have complicated things by changing engines, firing orders and even direction of rotation! As you can see, they've numbered the cylinders the other way than the 3.2L.
The Firing sequence for the 3.1 (traditional distributor) 6 cylinder is as follows -
If you take the distributor cap off, there should be a "No.1" formed on the inside. Stick a lead on this before you put the cap back on and go from there.
As leads are different lengths, you may have to swap a few to find the best fit.
I think 2 of them will look out of place - but that's the way it's designed. Just make use of clips for holding them neatly.
Thanks for using Fixya.

You can do a compression test, compression should be at least around 128 psi with no more then 20 psi difference between cylinders.

My apologies for the delay....Due to the bad economy the number of questions posted has skyrocketed 50% in the last 4-months.
For 2WD and 4WD it is the same:
For 3.2L:
Firing Order:
1-2-3-4-5-6
Cylinders:
5-------6
3-------4
1-------2
(front of vehicle)
Coil is on the Spark Plug
