Anybody else having trouble with the search facility? When I search for heater diesel or both words together it tells me there is nothing and I dont believe that.

 Same here, just bring up the search box > type in search words > hit search.

I was caught out with this search, when I first came to the forum

You have to click in the search box, before you type in your query, otherwise it says it can not find anything

Hope that this info is useful to someone, in the future

  Strange?....I just went to the search box,typed in Diesel Heater and also found 10 posts? Cheers

P.S I am computer illiterate,but I used the  search box in the Techies Corner area of the forum..Dont know if this makes any difference,but it works?

I just searched from the top of this page with 10 results but I find that many forums and even suppliers web sites are quite unreliable in their respective search engines.
It is annoying when you know a company sells an item but when you use the search engine on their page you get the dreaded maessage. No Results Found
