Thread: Knocking problems

Is there a safer place them just jammed into the intake

yeah, drill a hole in the rubber coupler or the intake pipe.

I just have the filter on the tb.. That fixed the temp. No reading 127.4. Much more believable

zip tie it to the filter. im not a fan of that wires ran to the inside of the air filter. wires can get messed up like that.

Helped alittle jt my problem. Now seeing around 2.5 most

That 3.4 might just be a little much for just headers, if you threw a 3.5 on you will probably not have anymore KR. You could check all motor mounts, and make sure the DP isnt hitting the sway bar or anything else to verify its not false.

Good idea. I'll try and pick up a 3.5. Would I lose a lot of power? And if I have the same amount of knock then I'll look into everything else.

Timing is better than boost anyday

I'm ordering one. Anyone wana buy a 3,4? Lol

Moar power lol

Dittto

Plus the size difference between a 3.5 and 3.4 is so minor. Kr is going to kill your power more.. Then throwing on a slightly larger pulley..

Oh and dare I say a 3.6 might need to be on order as well.

Just got codes p1133 and p0137... Front o2?

P1133 is bank 1 sensor 1 that is the front.
All the reading I have done on this code says to just change out the front 02 sensor.
P0137 is bank 1 sensor 2 that is the rear.
A code P0137 may mean that one or more of the following has happened: Faulty o2 sensor Exhaust leak near the rear sensor Plugged catalyst Short to voltage on O2 signal circuit High resistance or open on O2 signal circuit Engine running very rich or lean Engine misfire condition Fuel pressure very high or low - fuel pump or pressure regulator

Greatttt

for the front o2. we did a homemade extension when installing the headers. i'm thinking that could be a problem?.
I know i have a leak somewhere. thinking where the crossover meets the rear. hopefully thats the problem with the p0137

check your wire connections, if you failed to solder them i bet thats the issue.

When you made the homemade extension did you extend the car harness or the 02 harness? If you extended the 02 sensor harness you messed up the reading on the sensor, something about it using the wires to pull in fresh outside air into the sensor. I'll have to dig it up again.

we did not solder. we used butt connectors so that could be the problem? we did it on the o2 sensor harness.

i'll throw up some pictures tomorrow of what we did. Any possiblity this is linked to my kr issue? lol
