Hey guys.
My car takes quite a while to warm up, and even when it does... it only reaches a quarter... (i guess half of where normal operating temperature is. Its winter here in australia, not freezing, but quite cold. Can anyone give me some advice on what to check for? |

A Haynes-Chilton manula can be had for a few dollars and will tell you all you need to know.
I picked mine up at Autozone here, but any parts store should have them or be able to get them. |
