I've got to get one of those cable actuated plier sets. Harder to find in Canada it seems (Sears doesn't stock or send them here afaik).
Tstat is pretty easy to change. Hardest part is draining the system. Anders' tip to WD40 the stopcock was gold. Follow the fixmysaab pages, or the WIS. I just used the wis mainly. housing is located on the back of the engine on the drivers side. I don't think I even ended up removing any hoses to do it. Certainly not as much as many here do. I did use a variety of interesting combinations of extensions and flex to access the housing bolts. The temp sensor is even easier. unplug and remove with a deep socket. no hose removal required!
If you don't have the WIS, get it. It gives all the step by step as per the factory and you won't know all the torque specs otherwise.
good luck!
