1990 base Knock Sensor symptoms? Or?
DUB has been helping me with poor idle, bad mpg and shut offs when coming to a stop. I am waiting on the delivery of a MT2500 "Red Brick" I bought off of ebay but in the meantime I found that the connector going to the knock sensor has a very poor connection.
What would be the symptoms of either the bad connection or a bad sensor all together? Anything related to my issues?
Any other suggestions to check while I wait on the MT2500??
Already
Replaced:
I'm still checking for vacuum leaks with a mechanic stethoscope with vacuum line hooked to it for listening for a leak. but found none yet.
I may have left something out that I have replaced or tried! There has been so much!!!
BTW, DUB is an awesome guy! Extremely knowledgeable and willing to help!!
Thanks!
Wade
