92 960 wagon. At idle, when outside temp is cold, Car warms up great. Start going down the road and the temp gauge goes down and heat isn't as hot. I assume this is the thermosat sticking open? I read the FAQ and it mentioned opening the petcock on the bottom of the radiator to drain a small amount of coolant. Is it necessary to do this in order to change the thermostat? It looks to be very easy to do. Any warnings in doing this job?
