After a couple of WOT blasts I filled up the tank with gas.
Since then, I haven't been able to drive it hard at all without a lot of KR on the Scanmaster. I'm talking 8-12 degrees at part throttle and before I even get to 5psi.
So either I screwed something up in those WOT blasts, or I got some bad gas.
When I can get rid of most of this gas I will add some 100 to it to see if that helps.
But what if it's not the gas? What else could cause knock like that? BTW, I don't hear any knock - just seeing it on the Scanmaster.
I don't see how a cracked header could cause it, but what about a blown head gasket? Could that cause it?
I've also heard about something to do with the torque converter activating the knock sensor. What are the details on that and how do I check it?
