Is my knocklink working correctly? UKMY96
#1
Yes I have searched
Just wondering now I've fitted my knocklink it doesn't seem to do much! I've sited it just under the throttle assembly and I've left it (as per instructions) on max sensitivity. However it doesn't even regester anything unless I am absolutely flat out (on private roads of corse)
(3rd gear)
4.5k bottom light blinks
6 bottom light on
6.5-7 2nd green light blinks
I very rarely rev that high but was trying to find if it worked or not.
Is this normal?

With someone sitting in the car take a "knocking tool" screwdriver, biro, whatever and tap near the sensor, your co pilot should then yell that a few lights have come on.........Obviously the harder you tap the more lights though don't tap the sensor directly.....

Unless the car is highly modded or you are ruuning it on meths you probably won't see much activity, which is a good thing, really. It means everything is safe.
I run a 97 UK turbo to 1.65 bar peak 1.5 held and I have only ever lit the second green even on max sensitivity, albeit with 100ml of NF per tank of Optimax everytime, uprated fuel pump, bigger turbo and intercooler etc.
I wouldn't worry if I were you. Worry when the DO start lighting!

I'm running about 1 bar and always rich on the lambda so I wasn't expecting blackpool iluminations but just wanted to make sure it was similar to other ppls
Thanks for the confidence

I've got an import 93wrx that does just the same when running on optimax. Thought mine might be a little more enthusiastic to det but it seem fine Can just get the first yellow led when flat out at 7k but that's it
