Hi everybody,
as have been advised, I am reading the archives in the forum. Still I am not able to make the seach work as intented, I might not know how to do it properly. I click on the yellow arrow on the right of Search, and then click on "Advanced", I then write for example "shroud" in the terms field (without the quotes), I mark in any subject and body, and in the date range I write "11" "Years" in the "newer than" field. I click on "Submit" but I just always get 12 pages of results (exactly 300 results) that go from 06/10/11 to 01/03/10, nothing older than that year.... looks a bit rare to me, in fact I have tried other terms and I never get more than 12 pages of results (300 results).
What am I doing wrong? Or is it supposed to work that way and then I have to be filling from one date to another and so on...
What I am doing for now, to be able to read older posts, is reading all Keoke's posts and start from there...
Anyway in one of those posts (https://www.britishcarforum.com/bcforum/ubbthreads.php/topics/51307/Re_Door_Check_Strap#Post51307), I can see they are talking about a door check strap, which if I understood correctly, keeps the door open wide, booth dors in my car close if you don't keep them open with the hand which makes somewhat difficult to enter/get out of the car. Is there suppose to be such a mechanism to keep the doors open in an BJ7? Can anybody post a pic so I can see what is my car missing?
Thanks in advance for both questions,
Ignacio
