 |
|
| Just wondering where the knock sensor is located on a EF/EL and can one be fitted to my NC Fairlane? I am trying to fit a ECC V to my NC. |

Hey mate,
Its tapped into the block on the passengers side, around cyl 5/6, an inch or 2 below the deck.
I guess you could tap a thread into the side of the block. Not quite sure.
You can grab Ef/EL blocks pretty cheap. |

Serious? Maybe they started making provisions for it in the late ED blocks. I know that none of the EB blocks have them - none which i've owned anyhow. |

Thanks Dazza |

| doubt they would be different as they do the same job if they are different it may be more sensitive? and react faster |

Whats the advantages of using eecV over eecIV, sequential injection came in with AU?

the knock sensor detects engine knock 
basically pinging or pre- detenation of the air fule charge and retards teh time to increase power and stop damgage to the enigine
the term knock is used basically as the sound made is like a knocking sound |

Perhaps it's like those "hybrid" ELs that had both EL and AU parts in them: They started putting EF blocks into the last of the EDs in order to get the production line up to speed in time for EF? |
