Default is there any way to search 3 letter words?????

There are a lot of 3 letter words that I want to find like the CJM, DPE, FPR, LED, APS, DIY, AAM, BOV, OIL, etc etc.. but apparently they turned that off on the search feature... There are a lot of good information that I don't need to post again if I could search using those 3 letter words.

thanks

as it states on the top "be sure to use the search feature first, as the topic may have been posted already" but how do I search if it can't find 3 letter words?

Try combining your 3 letter word with another word to make it more specific. for example: LED lights

You should get much better results this way anyway.

Try this in google. Just slap the site:www.my350z.com before your three-character query or less.

"site:www.my350z.com rwd"

good suggestion. I didn't even think about that. Even better maybe the site admin can add a google search box to the page somewhere.

thanks for the idea but when you search like that, the search engine disregards LED and just searches light. And you know how many "light" posts there are.. A TON haha

good idea on google search but wouldn't it be easier if the admin would allow to search 3 letter words. A month and a half ago I could. I found all the info i needed now i can't find anything because the search is too broad
