Thread: seeing 7*+ of KR with conservative mods... Any suggestions??

Rest of tune-up done besides ignition?

Engine/trans mount condition?

Knock sensors in '97's don't normally care as much.

Get rid of the TB spacer. It's crap. Blocks off coolant flow, causing the rear bank to run hotter.

Oil change and plugs/wires changed out.

All mounts are stock

Really? I was under the impression that coolant was just for the TB to heat up during cold operation... hmm..

Too add to this you can run the block if you grind the passage in the LIM to allow coolant to pass through.
