Anyone know where my knock sensor is? 4.9L

 

IF IM NOT MISTAKEN IT IS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE MOTOR TOWARDS THE FRONT LOCATED A LITTLE WAYS DOWN UNDER THE SECOND SPARK WIRE FROM THE FRONT. WHAT IS YOUR TRUCK DOING?

 

ok I'll take a look on my break...the truck is running fine but I heard the knock sensors that Ford puts in are crapy, I guess they retard the timing to easily and there's 2 aftermarket brands that make replacements that I've heard are a lot better....I'm still waiting for a reply from someone about the names of the brands.
I probly shouldn't even bother with it because I've learned to many times "If it aint broke don't fix it" so I figure it could just be something I"ll do when I'm completly bored.

 

be careful i have replaced about 15 in my day and 8 of them broke on me and had to drill and easy out them from the block and prayed to god that i did not need to replace customer motors when i do them now i soak in pb blaster for at least two days before attempting to do so just a little tip

 

Justin, you need like a huge Lego set to tweak on. That would keep you busy.

Leave your G**Damn knock sensor alone. I swear I'm going to slap the schit out of you the next time I see you.

Take care,

LOL I wasn't going to mess with it seeing Chadsix last post....I get so damn bored sometimes so I'll start fixing crap and next thing ya know it's in the shop for atleast a week with a $1000 bill because I screwed something up.

 

Save the trouble. Send me the $1000 and rev the truck with me on the phone. I'll do a remote diagnostic of your knock sensor... $1000 even, cash only!

 

you guys are silly

 

HAH!!! I'll do it for $750, AND, the phone call won't cost as much!

Take care,
