I would change 'em. I was constantly getting 4* at the track, swapped them out, and it dropped dramatically. I also went in and edited the KS tables to resemble the 2002 tables.
My friend went from 12.0 to consistant 11.7's after his were swapped from his '98 lol. You also have to get a new little harness for them, as they have different clips on the new style sensors.

Familiarize youself with how the new harness unclips from the new knock sensors. It took me 2 flathead screwdrivers and a buddy to get mine loose. You have to depress both sides and pull up at the same time, it's hard when they're down in that hole and your fat fingers won't fit.

use a pair of needle nose pliers, and squeeze the connectors, were they are ovaled. If you look at them, they are circular, but their are two bulges on each side of the circle, that is where you want to squeeze. just apply a little pressure, and walk the connector up wards off the sensor.

Hi
I assume I will need 2 sensors and 1 harness? Or does each sensor have its own harness? Thanks.
