Hello everyone... just an idea for a group deal. seems like everyone needs one of these sooner or later... just so happens that i am in need of one sooner..... can someone start a GD for this part??... thanx..
yours truly...

 

bump, need one too...

 

ebay=90bucks.
installed mine today.
noticable difference almost immediately.

 

you've got to be lucky to find for that price, a lot of people want it. I was bidding on one and it went up till $127, decided to let it go, that's already more than from online autoparts store..

 

for all that need one, here's where i got mine @ a "buy it now". very reliable dude, i might add.

There are 6 left. Talk to him, maybe you'll get a good deal.

 

thanks man, i just got mine for 91 shippped. Thats a good price.

 

Thanks a lot chillinmax, I made an order as well, hope he still has some left. That is a very good price!

 

no prob fellas. i put my knock sensor in the next day i got it and booyah! noticable difference.

 

If the KS doesn't throw a code, how do you know it's bad?

 

it will not trigger a light, but hte ecu sotres the code. u can check the codes likle u normally would and see if u get 0304

or u can
The KS may be checked with an ohmmeter.

1) Raise the hood. View the engine from the driver's fender. Look into
the deep valley between the cylinder banks and below the intake manifold.
Identify the KS as a black item fastened to the block by a single vertical
bolt. A wire harness wrapped in black leads toward you, out of the valley.
That is the KS sub-harness.

2) Follow the KS sub-harness to it's nearest connector. This is connector F121.
It is located near the upper right-hand corner of the valve cover of the forward cylinder bank, as viewed from the front of the car.

3) Disconnect F121. You have to do a "press the latch and wiggle and
pull" to disconnect it. F121 has only two pins; if you see more than two
pins, you have the wrong connector. Use a digital ohmmeter capable of
measuring more than 10 Megohms. You want to measure the pins of F121, not
the sockets of the matching connector. Measure the resistance between a
good ground (such as the battery negative terminal) and pin #2 of connector
F121. On my car this is the highest of the two pins, the one closest to
the front of the car. The factory spec is 500 - 620 Kohms.

 

I ordered from that guy a KS but before paying through paypal I sent him e-mail to confirm that he has them available. That dude still did not reply me. Sent him another e-mail but still unsure if I should go ahead and paypla the money or not.....

 

he has some avail right? i dunno, i emailed him and took him over the weekend to reply to me. up to y'all, but i got my knock sensor.

the difference i notcied was that the acceleration from the line went up dramatically. I swear something was wrong before i got my KS replaced...but once it went it I jsut felt it.
