Greetings:

My '96 850 (new to me, and I love it) seems like the cabin heater does not warm up as fast as I would expect. I've noticed also that the engine temp guage does not get above 30% or so whereas previous vehicles for me have alsways had the engine temp guage at 50% when the car is warmed up.

Should I drain coolant? IS this simple?

Any other ideas?

Thanks
