Guest TurboSedan Posted December 12, 2003 Report Posted December 12, 2003 are new knock sensor pigtails available or should i just get a good one from a salvage yard? mine is now broken - how do you remove these things without breaking them? thanks joshua Quote
5speedz34 Posted December 13, 2003 Report Posted December 13, 2003 You mean the connector to the Knock Sensor? Umm I would just splice the wires, mine didn't break when I did mine. Quote

Umm I would just splice the wires, mine didn't break when I did mine. mine must have gotten brittle cuz it just crumbled when i took it off. do they just pull straight off? might be a stupid question but i don't want to break another. joshu Quote
5speedz34 Posted December 13, 2003 Report Posted December 13, 2003 Umm i think so I can go and snap a pick of the one one my motor in the garage if u want. Quote
SigEpCutlass Posted December 15, 2003 Report Posted December 15, 2003 i can relate to the situation...the first time i changed the oil in my cutty i did something similar. I nailed the housing of the knock sensor with the handle of the oil filter wrench, and ended up messing up the sensor itself. So, i just replaced the knock sensor. All is good now, i'm just a ton more careful around there. It's a bad place to have it just stick out, but whateva. Btw i bought mine from the dealership, but that was because NAPA was out of them. I think it was ~ $60 from the Olds dealer near me. Quote
5speedz34 Posted December 15, 2003 Report Posted December 15, 2003 I replaced mine for like $40 at the local parts place Quote
