A little tip: Google search

Since the search on the site has been problematic lately I thought I'd share this tip... you can use Google to search any web site you wish. Simply type in the keywords you are looking for followed by "site:url of site" For example, to search for info on a transmission leak you would type "transmission leak site:ford-trucks.com/forums/forum31" into Google and it would turn up any results with those keywords within the 99-03 PSD forum. To search all of FTE, you'd just eliminate everything after the first slash, to search the Super Duty/Heavy Duty forum you would use ford-trucks.com/forums/forum30 instead. Hopefully this will help some of you find the info you need!

Pop- I figured it out! just use ford-trucks.com when you search... the posts aren't categorized by the forum they are posted under in the URL. When I search for "clutch air gap site:ford-trucks.com" I came up with this post among others. Is that the thread you were hunting for?

Yea me too. I am out of town on business and using the company's laptop with my favorites on my memory stick - so I thought it was that arrangment causing the trouble. Therefore wasn't going to whine.
