Question to Group on how to post for long-run help

Began my first Rebuild/repair thread titled
just something like that by name.

Thought, hmmmm, this thread might just get buried
deep in days and page count.

Answer: Okay, I'll call it repair/rebuild 2. Kind of
new; top of thread list.

What do you think I should do, guys? One hecka-long
thread; always finding and posting to the same thread...
like, after the first post, on Page 2 already...

or something like a new post with a number so I'm right
in front of your eyes.

I kinda feel like I'm on one of those game shows
like where you get to use a life line and make a
call for help.
I'm neeedyy.

I'll check for the responses, but for now it's time to
drink some coffee....and lots of it to get revving....
and, well, turn a wrench. Best regards to a great
group!

2wrench -

Though I haven't used it and not sure how it works, the Forum has as option you can use to watch particular forums/topics/users, in case they get buried. Go to "My Stuff", then "My Watch Lists". Might be a way to keep track...

My advice would be to take it one step at a time. Get the engine apart on the stand and access the damage. Let's get that behind you and then tackle the engine compartment restoration.

I might be mistaken, but I believe the main page lists threads in order of most recent post, rather than thread origination date. Possibly there's an option somewhere for that ?

But the watch list feature that Mickey mentions also works well; basically you get an email whenever any makes a post to the selected threads.
