The need to search for 3 digit terms.

[redjmp]

I think that the ability to search for topics based on engine hp would be a great benefit to users and I can't understand why the system is set up to not allow search terms shorter than 4 characters long.

Please allow shorter terms.

Cheers!

sometimes you can get by with 5hp* for example.

Mercury 200

Johnson 150

Yes those help a little but its still not the same.

Adding 200 after Mercury for example, will just search for Mercury and disregard the 200.
Over 100 pages of hits.

It is very frustrating to search for engine hp specific info when you are in say the Mercury forum.

Or for any other number specific info like 202 valves, 22p prop, 90w oil, model# 602 etc.

I hate asking for info that I know has been asked a 1000 times before.

Maybe the manufacturer's maintenance manual.
