Change to search method?

Has the advanced search page changed with respect to multi-word title searches? In the past I could have sworn that a search with multiple words had an implied AND between the words; now it appears that if any of the terms match an entry it is returned (implied OR). The current implied OR is much less useful; a search for "won't turn over" returns tons of useless posts about turn signals, etc.

I gave up using the built in search function on this forum years ago.

I've had the best luck with the site search restriction on google.

For example:

<insert what you want to find out here and remove the <> marks> site:peachparts.com
