Your engine is going to blow up! Stop driving it ASAP!!

Check your oil level.

your engine is fine.. they're just sarcastic because no one uses the search feature.. AHEM..

check your oil level, if it's fine then let people know and diagnose from there.. oil is usually the culprit though..

Edit: Or did you really want us to explain how to avoid the oil level dropping..? lol..

The search function takes about 5 minutes to excecute properly.

Attitudes like that really arent going to win you any friends, and will hinder you from generating any assistance.

sorry. I didn't realize that you owned Honda-Tech. My bad.

Oh wait, you don't. You ended up waiting a lot longer than the 5 minutes to do a search, so please explain how that makes sense.

...from how I understand what he was saying, using a computer at work is a "no-no"... so the time i took to post a thread to ask for help &lt; time it would take to run and search through the threads for the 'right answer'.. *shrugs*

Does make sense if he is trying to avoid being caught on the internet period.

Yeah but he has to use the internet more to read the responses and reply to them than if he had just searched.

By coming back more than once the chance of being caught is far more than a few minutes to find the answer to begin with. It was dropping out of VTEC, most people would try to search before just posting about it and coming back every now and than to check.

If he would get in trouble for using the computer at work for *5* minutes (during lunch, etc) then he'd get in trouble for 1 minute too, so coming back more than once makes that scenario seem very, very unlikely.

down boys...

you just asked (him) to explain.. and from what I read, I thought he explained it and that was my interpretation. I sure as **** wasn't argueing for him of why he shouldn't have to search like the rest of us.... it'll be ok guys.

...scuse me while I go back to Yahoo Scrabble.
