Fill/expansion tank over pressurizing?

Why did I have to charge the battery?
Stock spec battery you may have a issue but if it has more CCA's then stock the stock system will not fully charge it and it will require a actual charger to fully charge it every few months.- tjkj2002

Help! Dreaded Brake Indicator Light on!
Your KJ uses a 3 channel ABS system and the rear ABS sensor is also the rear WSS that operates the speedo.So any issue with that rear sensor will make the ABS not function and turn on the brake on also.- tjkj2002

Heater Core Revisited.
Classic heater core restriction problem. Look at the pic I posted of the heater core in a KJ.Fully plugged you will still have "good flow" through the hoses and core with both the inlet and outlet on the same side that can bypass the actual core itself.- tjkj2002

Heater Core Revisited.
The coolant can bypass 95% of the heater core if it's at all plugged in anyway. Flushing may return 5%-10% for a very short term fix.- tjkj2002
