Thanks all for your positive feedback
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

...and I did a worldwide search for the lesser known 'ERG' valve
Results 1 - 10 of about 14,600 for ERG valve. (0.08 seconds)
It's a good idea Simon - the Google search thing I mean |

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

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

Great stuff. Have my homepage set to Google, but never see it, as MFF always opens last used pages, which is normally pocuk!
Have you tried just typing ur username in?? |
