Re: Bypassing knock sensor

You think? Is it really a rare occurance for knock to occur.

I use 93 octane and the car is set at 15-16 psi. When someone came to test drive the car (I am trying to sell) he said that the car was knocking.

SO, by removing/bypassing the knock sensor I can see if my car has this 'phantom knock'...since I do not have a logger and so on.

Mod wise I am running a downpipe and an open air element plus the MBC set at 15psi. THAT IS IT! What could be the problem? I have dealt with this problem since I bought the car and it is slow as shit.

ANY help or advice is needed.

EDIT> The car does NOT have a CEL.

THANKS!
