Spark retard issue
I have MAF setup and am having trouble with spark retard. Installed new shortie headers. I disconnected the knock sensor and am still getting spark retard at throttle. Sometimes up to 12*. What else could cause this if not the knock sensor? Could it be a bad MAF? It seems with some datalogging that when throttle is applied the maf readings go up and so does the spark retard. They seem to be related somehow.

Did you set a resitor instead of the KS?
Try to remove the 10kOhm from Pin B on the ALDL cable and see whats happen...
