Seeing the recent uptake of " how to diagnoss my issue" type threads latley( I am one of the guys that suck at searching), and or where is the ------ tech info at?
As with the new paint and body section ' could we start up an alphabetical list of symptoms
( kinda like a f a q 's bible) borrowed the idea from the toyota bible found off site.
It may fill mel's 2 volumes up rather quick??
Just a thought!

unfortunately this wont work.
because it would require the people with these issues to READ

when i got my first IDI, i did all of the tune up procedures that were mentioned on this site that i read.
didnt have one bit of an issue until i started modifying things..lol

altho this is a great idea, i think you may be asking too much by expecting people to do their homework.
we would still have to link them to the tech article.

however, i would like a better search engine. i know nothing about that side of the computing world, but when you type a topic in,
you get a wide variety of information that you dont need.
always takes an hour or so thumbing through threads to find the one youre looking for.
even on the advanced settings.

Not sure what you are looking to do. You want a post that shows all tech posts via links and in alphabetical order?

Thank you sir!

Basically,
A link list to stuff we explain daily, ip glows leaks ect.
Thinking on the lines ( stolen idea from offsite) of an alphabetical list...
Alternator-
clocking ,
3g upgrade,

Batteries-

Coolant-
Test strips,
Elc,

This would help the search ability / capability immensely.

When I built my yota' I used one on pbb.
Being able to see a subject item then go to the linked thread, helped my build alot.

Its going to take alot of your time to compile the list ect.
I think the faq's mel done up are great' a similar idea.

Thanks for looking!
Merry x mas to you and yours and thanx for the site!
