[s-cars] Trouble with archive search...

I used the word "turbo" because I knew there would be a huge number of hits.

The fact that my previous method of searching no longer works is disturbing
to me, mostly because it's hard enough to separate the wheat from the chaff.

This method doesn't separate out all the non-AAN discusions, either.

So, if I am doing the same thing, and Google is generating poor results,
then Google must be the culprit.

I'm going to, for grins, try Yahoo.

Thanks anyway - the method you just used will work for some stuff - like
993TT Big Brake Kit parts list (what I was after to begin with.)
