Great information, thanks! And thanks as well to Unca Joel, Dagbear and Doug. And thanks for bringing up another point: since I've never had a coolant light problem, I've never read a coolant light post, so though it may be the milliionth appearance of the information, it's the first time I've seen it. Not that i would never read a coolant light post--if one appeared after two straight weeks of tire posts, I'd read it : ). Actually, I usually have something else--more often a plan than a problem, thank goodness--that occupies my interest so I like most folks gravitate toward my immediate or planned needs. Someone was asking the other day about setting aside information as in the BTDT site. Maybe you've hit the defining criteria: what's been asked most? There may be a way to search the archives for greatest number of appearances (yes, I realize that that depends on some disciplined way of titling posts) but it could be a start. Or, maybe just develop the practice of loading essays like yours into BTDT or something like it when it's something we realize we've seen or even written for the millionth time?
