I recommend the Trottenberg "Multrigrid" book.

This will not work unscaled, the off diagonal terms as large as the diagonal, 
its is very unsymmetric.  The time term on the diagonal might save you but that 
is fragile.

I'm sure someone has worked through how to attack this as a block system but I 
can see that its almost lower triangular so block Gauss-Seidel iterations looks 
like a good place to start.
