Back in January (approx), I started a post on my switch to the Shell Rotella T6 oil. I can't seem to locate that thread any more. I searched all the topics listed in the Misc Technical forum, but nothing. Any idea what happened to it? I had included some info about the oil that I need now. Where to old posts go??

Wow Keith, what is your secret for finding stuff via the search function, you just seem to find stuff for folks like a master librarian. I have to filter through mucho pages to find anything, guess I'm just jealous. Care to share?

I've NEVER been able to find ANYTHING I've needed using the search function! I go through like 300 posts each time, and nothing. Yea, I know it's me, but it still sucks. 
And you may see me tonight

While I'm no network engineer, I consider myself to be fairly proficient on the web but I have NEVER gotten a result with this search engine. Quote:

Moe made it pretty clear but forgot to mention you have to click on the 'Submit' button! That could be the problem some of you are having around here with the 'Search' utility!!

No, what I get is too many generic and unrelated posts, I usually (but not always) find what I'm looking for after a lot of sifting through. I do realize the googly brats aren't running things around here. At least we don't have to give Hardly a rebuttal opportunity on every opinion yet.

+1, except for the part about "...I usually (but not always) find what I'm looking for after a lot of sifting through." 
But again, I know it's me, cause some of you others (the "GIFTED" ones) can pull ANYTHING out of their "Bag of tricks"

Moe: That worked. I had not put in my screen name, now it is working like a charm. I think folks will now consult me when they need to find something...<g> - Thanks! Quote:

Also, I have been playing with this and you can get good results pulling up specific subjects from this forum via google, go figure. Also, I will remember to add (if known) the username in the future. Thanks for the tip.
