Hello,


I'm made posts to this group for a number of years. *I went to look
for an old post from 6 or 7 years ago and I can't find it.


I also was trying to find info about a Mercruiser 3.7 motor so I
entered 3.7 then clicked "search this group" button and I had no
finds? * I would expectd about 100+ posts dealing with this motor!


Any ideas where the old archive of items is?


Thanks


Dont bother posting any questions about boats here. Most of the idiots
would rather talk ****, than boats. Most of them dont own boats at
all. A select few troll polotics here constantly.
IF...you want help...try * * *marineengine.com * * * *Membership is
free, and help is plentiful.


People there dont talk **** like homemade beer, girls moto-cross
racing, golf, old mens reciepes, etc, etc.


You'll have better luck if you avoid this off-topic haven for old
burnt out hippies-freaks, and retired army dip****s.


Thans for the info all. *I've been using this same email since at
least 2001 and always do my posts through Google and not a local new
server. *I don't think I would have a retention period based on this,
right? *When I'm looking at this post and type "3.7" into the white
box at the top right (when reading this group through google), then
click "search this group" I only get back 2 hits for this posting I
placed about a week ago?


As I recall, there weren't a lot of responses.

Yes that's true (there weren't alot of response posts) BUT, shouldn't
I get back any thread that has the term "3.7" in it that was posted in
this group at any time in the past?
