Knock Sensors... what to torque to? (does it matter?) welp... after having my car at the track and discovering i'm having an issue w/the knock sensors (PCM detects a prob... tossing me into low octane ignition tables and taking away advance... 10-12 degrees advance at WOT REALLy hurts performance :p)
So I just ordered 2 new knock sensors (I doubt they're bad, but while the Intake is off... may as well put new ones in). I'm guessing I pinched the wires between the intake and the head but wont know till Friday...
So.. do the knock sensors need to be torqued to a certain value to work, or is a little tighter than hand fine?
This is w/the LS6 lifter valley cover if it matters...
