[QUOTE="evil281, post: 15027254, member: 70903"] The knock sensors can pick up vibrations from other things on the car like exhaust contacting metal for example. The sensor thinks there is knock and pulls timing. In this example the engine may have had zero knock but timing was still pulled. In other words "false knock" If you are getting knock on say 91 octane and want to know if its bad gas or false knock you can run 100 octane and data log. If the knock is gone then it was bad 91 gas. If you still have knock then it may be something else getting picked up by the sensor. [/QUOTE]
