What's the best way to do a search on this site? I seem to get a heaps of irrelevant hits. For example there's a post today on CO2 for tyre inflation. I put CO2 in the search box and hit GO and heaps of posts came up but only the first one, which is the post I refer to above, appears to be a direct hit. What am I doing wrong?

Baz - caps or no caps makes no difference.
However I now realise that each post it picked up actually has the letters CO2 in there somewhere. I had assumed from the subject matter of each hit that it has nothing to do with CO2 - I should have looked a bit further.

I was going to say the same but I thought that would be a bit cheeky.

All the best
