knock sensor

[utstangs]

is it wise to disconnect the sensor and how do you do it with out the check engine light staying on

 

[mr_woodster]

unpluging the knock sensor will not trigger the check engine light.
Wise? On a non-turbo motor you should be able to do it and not even worry , not much chance of pinging anyways.

I took mine off and i got worse gas mileage... Nothing besides turbo will make the 2.3 fast and furious yo.

Worst part is I put it back in and it was non-working, so I had to get a new one...

it is on a 87 turbo motor running a la3 ecu and the chck engine light does come on
