For those who don't already know...
Site Specific Search:
Often, you want to search a specific website for content that matches a certain phrase. Even if the site doesn't support a built-in search feature, you can use Google to search the site for your term. Simply use the "site:somesite.com" modifier.
Example: "shifter linkage bushings" site:mazdas247.com
This will provide results only from mazdas247.com and only the three words together as a phrase.
Google is far superior at finding strings more relevant to a specific group of words, Vbulletin's search just attaches itself to the exact word you type.
I've figured out how to cut and paste from the FSM to a post.
In Abobe Acrobat reader, you click edit, then click snapshot, then click and drag the rectangle over the entire page (the rectangle only seems to cover one page so if the section you want to highlight covers more than one page, you might have to do it more than once). The size of the diagram (or page) on your Adobe Reader is transferred to paint. It's easier to copy your desired size first than to do it in paint.
I copied the PDF file to Paint to save and convert it to JPEG, then I uploaded to photobucket then clicked "add photo" from my Mazdas247 post, copied and pasted the URL to this post and all I got was that stupid icon thing.
Try this if you used photobucket...
Re: About Uploading Files
Yea photobucket has a learning curve, for every picture you have a direct link( you don't want) an image link ( you want) and paste that right into the thread. Once you have you will do them easily for pics, you should also be able to login right on photobucket website or use an app if you are doing this on a phone.
It looks a bit like this...

You want "IMG code".
If you use facebook to enter photobucket, you don't have to use a password.
