I think what he is saying is would this cause a CEL, or is it something else?

 

yea would it throw a cel or would it cause my car to go into limp mode?

 

what ecu are you running?? if you are running ex ecu 96-00 it will look for knock sensor. If you are running p28 it will not look for it

the knock sensor is in the block not the head.. so you need a p28 ecu and it will not look for it..

 

yea im running the ex ecu... we are gonna try an hook one up 2morrow.... hopefully if i hook that up it will get it out of limp mode... but im also pulling a emissions code....
