Search Function Acting Up?

Is something going on with the forum search function? Been trying to find some previous threads and getting very minimal results with a keyword search. For giggles, i tried some very common words and phrases (fuel, spark, Karl smells nice, etc) with the same minimal results. I even tried the link in my profile for threads I have started. It shows a whopping total of three! This has all been happening over several days, so it's not a temporary glitch.

Okay. Does anybody remember what sealant I used on my truck’s oil pan? It was leaking where the dipstick tube fitting is riveted to the pan.

The answer is needed for this thread:

One shortcoming with using the Google. Many times I want to find a previous reply of mine, where once again I solved a vexing problem and made everything right again in the world.

The Google search option doesn’t appear to have an option to sort by user.

Just put your user name in the search terms. Yours is unique so should work.
