Use AND, NOT, and other boolean logic and the searches do not respond as they used to.
I'm not familiar enough probably with anything complex but Google apparently does support at least some operators... What can you not do now that you could previously?

one example

"C4" AND "Dana" AND "36" AND "ring and pinion" NOT "ford"

and you get all ford, and none for a Dana 36

changing to +/- and you get a different result where the result should be the same

Yes, but you can use +/- and get the desired behavior, right? Just can't use actual boolean operators?

using the + / - doesnt give the results I am looking for. just different than the boolean operators.
