A question for Vader

Vader, my car threw a code 43 the other day and I did a searchon the boards and found this quote from you" You may have a failing detonation sensor or wiring. You could try to replace the sensor with a 100K resistor (3.9K for S/D ECMs) to test the theory."

I gather you mean to splice into the wire that attatches to the knock sensor and incert the 3.9k resistor inline.Another question is I bought a 3.9k resistor that is 1/2 w. Is this allright?

well i'm sure not vader and you always risk having a question answered by asking for someone by name. PMs and e mail are a lot more effective for direct exchanges. anyway to answer your questions, yes and yes
