Went to find info on "deep C6 pan", Google came up with a link to this thread (from Google's cache, of course) but because it's from the cache, I can't read any of the responses to that thread, and can't find the original in the archive -- due to the lack of search facility. ARRRGH!

Since you know the forum, date, and topic of the thread, it's fairly easy to find it in the archives - because the unindexed archives are in date order.
Go to that forum in the archives - in this case "6.9L diesels 3/01 - 2/05". Then look for that date.
Scroll down to the bottom of the first page in the index and notice a bunch of clickable page numbers. I clicked on page 20 and that was too old. Then worked my way back and clicked on page 14 and hit paydirt. Page 14 of the index included the dates around 9/25/04, so I found that thread. Click on that thread and the topic starter and all replies are right there.
But if you want to get the URL of that thread, to pass it on to someone else, then the one in the address window of your browser won't do it. If you have that thread showing on the screen and right-click on the screen, then click on "properties", a different URL will show up in a new window. But that URL won't work either. I guess because the forum is not indexed?
Frustrating. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
