I think the forum search here doesn't allow terms of three characters or less.
You need to use google like click23 suggests.

Hi There, When I'm trying to use the advanced search for topics under "CAC" or "F37", I get no search results (bogus!). Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? -p |

I like using google for advance searches for websites site:http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=5 cac site:http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=5 f37 Using the forums search tool, I would select the "Liberty CRD...Love that Torque!!!" as the forum to search, and then only search for one term at a time, CAC or f37 |

In the future if you just want to restrict the search to the "Liberty CRD...Love that Torque!!!" section use site:http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=5 but if you are wanting to search all forums use site:http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum |
