I was in a shop talking to a Saab Parts Man the other day and he was talking about his C900tc and he said "It didn't have any heat at idle until R## did the secret fix and now it has tons of heat at idle". So I went and talked to R## and he said that the fix was a secret and that Saab really disavowed any knowledge of this fix. The way he got it was to have a customer who did't like the amount of heat his car had at idle. They did all the standard fixes and he was still complaining about the heat.
level and the Saab rep told him to remove the elbow hose from the front of the cylinder head[front of car] and drill a 1/4" hole into the head through the fitting where the elbow hose was connected[stick the drill into the fitting and drill]. The tough part is there are two layers of aluminum under this fitting you only want to drill through the first layer and not through the second otherwise you will have drilled directly into the combustion chamber.
