For the transmission, 5w30 motor oil. Back in 1981, I think the recommendation was straight 30-weight motor oil, but Isuzu later revised that. I'll have to check my manual for the other lubricants. The fuel filters are available at places like Autozone, and they're around $20. You may want to take a look at the Isuzu P'up forum as well as this one -- http://www.isuzupup.com.
