Thanks all for your positive feedback Smile

One thing to remember ... the information 'harvested' by Google will not be bang up to date.

In addition, if you practice with the forum's own Search facility, you will find you can 'tune' the search more, for example, to ONLY search for (a) key word(s) in the topic titles in a specific forum Rolling Eyes

...and I did a worldwide search for the lesser known 'ERG' valve  Wink

Results 1 - 10 of about 14,600 for ERG valve. (0.08 seconds) Rolling Eyes  Laughing

It's a good idea Simon - the Google search thing I mean  Confused   Very Happy

I like it and hopefully the Site will gain from it.
I thought I would do a really random search i.e 710 cap and got 132,000 results Laughing  Laughing  Laughing  Laughing

If you enter 'Pajero' guess what site is at the top? thumbright


Serious question though, does the background have to be that colour? I find it a bit of a strain trying to read dark blue type on a light blue background Confused
