    1997 LC heating up gradually only with A/C on.

    Hi everyone. Here is the mystery of my truck. An overhauled was performed by a local shop. Engine runs smooth and everything is great until I turn the AC on. The temperature starts to slowly climb to almost 3/4 of the temp gauge (I turn the AC before getting to the red) But as soon as I...

    75 FJ40 4 speed "T-case poping out of gear"
