Where to buy a knock sensor?

Where to buy a knock sensor?

Postby Sleeper » Fri Jun 01, 2007 9:27 am

I blew my knock sensor some time ago and I am now looking to purchase another one. Does anyone know of a place that sells knock sensors either online or in So. Cal. for a good price? Thanks. How much should they usually run for, price wise?

because without the fuel mod, your front bank is running lean, leading to the knocking and the blowing of your sensor

even if you just replace it now, you'll just end up blowing another one

for you guys without a return-style fuel setup, jim's fuel mod is pretty much a must to get fuel to the front rail


as for your question, the dealership and ebay. or a junkyard if you can find an engine that hasn't been torn apart

when I checked autozone, napa, etc back in the day, they wanted more for knocksensors than even the dealer did
