The thread title says it all? How big is it and what color is it????

 

3"x3"x1" thick

Dull silver metal, and says, "Knock Control N318 18 771A" right on it.

 

 

would that be like the knock sensor on a piston engine?

Thank you so much for the picture, its all i need,

 

Hey Derrik. Sorry I didnt help Kyle get the right one. I didnt see anything like that in the car we looked at. Perhaps it was in a spot hard to see. I cant believe they stack the cars like that.

That TII was sitting on top of a wrecked 3rd gen. I wanted to cry.

The knock sensor detects pre-ignition(knock) and retards the timing. The manual test the knock sensor by hitting the rotor housing with a hammer and looking to see if the timing lite shows retard.

Just a note: the 87/88 have the knock controller in the passengers foot well. Far right and way fwd.

The later models have the control incorporated into the ECU.

 

Derek, I read they run about 25$ from a junk yard.
