Sorry you're having problems. This is not unusual. If you can't find your ad using Craigslist's search engine, no one can.

Craigslist states:

Posts may be removed or omitted from index pages and search results by automated systems, CL staff, or community moderation -- for non-compliance with terms of use, site guidelines, and/or community norms.

You may be able to solve the issue with the use a a Web proxy, as offered free at http://www.zend2.com/. Fellow Help Owl volunteer smcclurken has additional suggestions here
