I was however chastised by IM and told to "use the SEARCH".

I use the search but I have trouble with it. For example, if I search "AMSOIL 20W50" I get any thread that contains the words amsoil OR 20W50. So it's hard to narrow results down.

I would expect "AMSOIL 20W50" (with the quotes) in the search would return very few results and I could hone in on the information I need, but instead it points me to THE oil post. You know the one, with 1500 posts?

Sorry bout this, yeah I'm a new guy but I'm usually pretty good with this 'puter stuff.
there are several ways to get better results
use + between separate words
use * as a wildcard where applicable
use quotes around separate words that must appear together
search w/ a specific user name if you can narrow it down to a specific poster
