Re: High Knock in my Talon

Well now that my car starts, I'm back to troubleshooting this. I am heading to the dodge dealership right now to get some MCCC. I was out there today playing with the knock sensor. I still don't have any means to torque it to a specific number. So I tried just finger tightening it, then finger tight with a little itty bitty turn of a wrench, then a little more, then barely finger tight. Nothing seems to be changing at all. This is a new knock sensor, new gas, my car doesn't have any lifter tick that I can hear.

This knock is getting ridiculous. I don't even have to by moving. I can just have it sittin in the garage, in neutral, and rev it up, and the knock is through the roof about a half second after the pedal hits the floor. We'll see if this MCCC changes anything. I also am going to double check the ignition timing. I'll write back with my findings. If this doesn't fix it, I will probably see if I can stop by LSE and have them quick torque the sensor for me since I know they have a socket for it.
