Air re-circ valve causing knock?
Air re-circ valve causing knock?
Hi Guys,
I recently installed a PFC on my 94 R2 and have been getting high knock readings up to 103 since. These high readings seem to exactly coincide with the Air Re-circulation Valve dumping air as I come of the throttle/boost.
My recirc pipe is not plumbed into anything and is just lying there disconnected. It has some kind of a HKS valve at the end and there is a 90 degree fitting at the end of it.
Have any of you guys ever experienced this and should the re-circ valve be plumbed into my HKS air filters??
Thanks in advance.

Ok Herb...I live in Ireland and believe it or not there is nobody that can map an FD. A group of us have got together and there is a guy from England comming over to Dublin to map our cars but it wont be until early Feb..and my fd is my daily driver!
I was out in it again there and i am getting high knock (104) if I half depress the accelerator and keep it there through the rev range, this seems to be more sever the higher the gear im in...and happens just as the re-circ dumps air...why would this be??
However, if I floor it I am only seeing readings of (29) through 1st, 2nd and 3rd?...would this be a fueling problem...sounds to me like the more fuel the less knock..
any advice??
