Re: Knock Sensor

I got another knock sensor months back and it fit the same way. It's not the sensor itself, but the threads on the block. And no liquid or anything flows through where the knock sensor is at. I believe it's just a hollow chamber. So if I re-thread, then nothing will get inside to damage it. I can take compressed air and blow it out then.

I was thinking of drilling the hole just a little bit bigger and then forcing the sensor to fit in and lock-tight everything good. Bad idea?
