Default Replacing knock sensors

What a pain in the A@@. Manifold is off, new sensors are in, beer time to cool off.

Wish me luck

I have done mine, it's not too bad. I suggest only using new OEM parts. Mine had aftermarkets that died. It's a good chance to clean up a few things as well.

While you have the intake off you may want to replace the camshaft position sensor. I had a problem with mine and had to remove the intake to replace it a week later.

Here is a link to a well done write up with pics from another forum:

H2 Knock sensor replacement thread (from my archives))

MODS: My apologies if this link to another forum post is not allowed. Just trying to help. If it is, please remove my post, I tried to find a rule on this but I was unsuccessful. Thank You!

Sorry I didn't take any pics. The link mentioned here is pretty good. The only thing I did differently was I left the injectors attached and just popped the fuel line connection off. The injector connections are not that big of a deal.

I didn't see any use in adding the silicon either or all that aluminum tape. I purchased OEM harness and it was well protected.
