Are you using the "advanced search" option, where you can limit the search to sections of PH and in shorter time frames. If you are just using the main search then it will search all forums over all time periods, so it will be slow to do that.

Works for me, are you trying to search for something with 3 or less letters?

I just did a "Ford Focus" search in General Gassing, in the last 6 months and it gave me 21 pages of results within 10secs.

I did 8 years as i was looking for any knowledge at all about a specific car, but it was Quantum 2+2 so I'd be suprised if there was more than a page of results

"2+2" won't work though as it's 3 letters or less.

You just end up with Quantum results - http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/search4.asp?h=0...

only took a few secs on a full PH wide search.
