dumb question about using the forum

How can I "bookmark" or save a thread to refer back to? I am seeing great ideas for future projects/repairs that are not immediate priority. I have not had wonderful luck using the search and wondered if there is a way to make a list of "favorite threads" or something...? Thanks

I do that, too.
I just copy the complete URL at the top of the page in your browser.
Keep them on a list to refer back to later. Like a notepad doc.
then just enter the URL and it just calls up the thread.
Works for me!

You can also subscribe to the thread under "Thread Tools" at the top of the thread display. This will allow you to go to your personal page and see the list of threads you want to go back to.

I just save certain threads in a file in my favorites.

I recommend keeping a note pad and ball point pen near the computer, to write down your favorite URL's. Alternatively, you could also use a number 2 pencil.

Ctl-D in Firefox - arrange them under a Bookmark Floder called 911, and then sub-folders with names that match the Service Manual sections
