The LT-4KM is a waste of money if ya have false knock.
Do a board search and get the resistor to put in line with your knock sensor and fix it or get it tuned out of the computer.

It WON'T fix it.If it's pulling timing now it will pull timing after ya spend the money and install the LT-4KM. That would be a waste of money. The resistor costs a couple of bucks and ya can get it at Radio Shack and ya can put it in yourself.

Re: looking for a link to desensitize knock sensor

BTW, at the same site you can download a Windows exe that will help with the calculations. I thought it was handy enough to mention.
