    No problem, just ensuring that the correct information is disseminated.

    It's a shame your ego is larger than your base of knowledge


    That's induced as KR BTW.

    I have never found this. All of my transmission tuning shows directly in timing, not with any KR in all 97, 98, 99-01.5 and 01.5-03 code bases.

    There is no such thing as KR programmed by the PCM to reduce torque on shifts. The PCM retards timing independent of the knock detection system.
    KR is a direct result of noise picked up by the knock sensors in a certain frequency range. There is only knock, and false knock... there is no "programmed knock" for torque management.
    You don't have to agree with me, you can just be wrong.

    The small blips that Chris is seeing (under 1*) are likely from noise being picked up somewhere else... not from actual knock/detonation.
    The characteristics of real knock are opposite that of false knock.

    LOL, I've admitted to being wrong etc many times. It's called being humble, when you learn it ... let us know. Til then you may want to consider browsing the FSM on the info you are speaking about. You can't find the term "False knock" in the manual, because false knock isn't a real item. It's a mechanical issue that needs to be fixed.
