Default Search no longer works

Im in the forced induction section and i use the "search this forum" for the word "timing ", it brings up 400+ pages, and If i click on some (most) of the threads and do a word search (control F) there isnt even the word "timing" in these threads. WTF? It seems to be bringing up pages of just ****. I see why people ask the same question time after time, and I see why I rarely visit this website anymore.

@pwrtrip75 I agree that the default forum search isn't that helpful at times. Check out the "Google Results" tab after you search, it drastically improves the threads and content you will find.

I dont want to know what google brings up for "timing". Lol, that kinda defeats the whole purpose of LS1 "tech" if you cant get any "tech" info from it.

The Goole Results tab is using Google to search LS1Tech specifically. It won't show content from other sites.

just go to google directly and enter "site:ls1tech.com Timing" and it will only search LS1tech.com for timing

Yup. That's what I always do. I type in whatever I'm looking for in google and then add ls1tech afterwards. Works like a charm.

I dont want to search all of LS1tech, just a specific forum. I tried the search in "forced induction", brought up a bunch of posts without the search word again, then tried hitting the "google results" and it brought up results from the entire website. I want to "search this forum". It was so easy to search for something and actually find it before.
