.055 for one heatrange colder. Smaller isn't better on your setup.

Ryan.. we are agreeing.. Kinda.

See at 1-2 degrees the car seeing knock and pulling timing. You are seeing knock. Knock is detonation. I say tune and rid yourself of it. Bill says at the worst..that'* ok for him. You don't get on your car on the hottest nastiest day. You treat it nice and then it'll never see the KR.

In those conditions, for a daily driver, that'* WAY too much.

Even for my toy, I wouldn't tolerate that for much longer than the second scan run to verify the data.

Yup, thats what im going to do tonight.

I for that i knocked off two of my Vac lines going to my air mixer when i did the spark plugs so lets hope that did something.

if i still get it then im going to go back to the 2.8" for now until i can track down the KR. :?

Your 12 year old vacuum hoses should have already been replaced. How about you replace them since nudging one lightly shouldn't disconnect it.

Ok after plugging back in some vac lines that fell off... Today on the way to Advance i tested the KR again.. Back to the way it was non in 1st and a little in 2nd. 1-2... and i really had to almost floor it or floor it to make it do it and then a few time i floored it, it went away.

So while i was at advance i got 2 feet of 5 diffrent size Vac lines ($2.72) on charged me for the cheapest one. and i replaced 3 lines/ peaces so far.

There was one like that plug in to something on the SCer that like fell off as i pulled it. and then i replaces one fo the couplers above the Trans Mod and then one of the Air Mix lines.

So im going to wait for it to get like in the 70'* and then check KR again.

You want to test for KR in hotter conditions than 70'*.
