Hello,

I am so grateful to have people whom have shared their knowledge and I just want to acknowledge that.

So, just as my title states, I'm getting an isolated Ping or Knock noise, small amount of smoke. The R&R of sensors, water transfer hose, and Valve Gaskets, Manifold etc...

Any ideas?

 

Need more info such as
mileage
brand of parts
exact list of parts you replaced
any trouble codes
original problem(s)

 

210,000 milesReplaced the Gaskets andspark Plug Rings, Valve Cover Gaskets, RTV sealant, the Transfer Hose is from Gates. Followed the torque specs, So, Knock Sensors are crap NewYall brand , I have another new one fairly more expensive. 3 times I have done the total disassemble reassemble and it all looks good.

I don't have OBD just yet, by tomorrow. Thanks

 

Any updates? I would stick with oem knock sensors fyi
