  • What would cause the knock sensors to not work?

    Did some logging, but I am skeptical about starting to tune because I NEVER get any knock retard. Nothing...... Ever...... What would cause this?

      91 Octane, don't know the real afr.
      At WOT, advance is 16.5* at 3400 RPM up to 30* at 6000RPM.

      I was under the impression that even some bumps in the road caused knock.

        You should be able to smack the intake manifold with a hammer and see it show up as knock.
