2nd Knock Sensor?
Hey whats up! The other day I was tightening the passenger's side header on my car due to a leak when I discovered what appears to be a 2nd knock sensor
! Its located under the 2nd primary towards the back! or is it a knock sensor? I know that the other sensor is lcated in between the 1st and 2nd primary which is easy to access. Do I happen to have a different type of engine or something??
Thanks,
Ruben

Re: 2nd Knock Sensor?
The knock sensor is down low next to the oil pan rail and installed in an existing block coolant drain plug hole.
The dash temp gauge sensor is installed in the drivers side head. Electric cooling fan cars will have another temp sensor installed in the passenger side head. The ECM temp sensor is usually installed in the thermostat housing or intake coolant runner.
