Re: How to Get Rid of the Knock Sensor Light (aka "$" light)

     Not to rain on your parade but plugs don't usually foul unless you are 
     running too rich.  I would check your plugs again to see how they 
     look.

Light is off for good! No, I didn't remove the bulb! :-)
     
1. replaced all plugs with Bosch Platinums.  Found 2 fouled (3 & 4) 
2. drove about 50 miles, highway
3. light gone
     
Car is running like a top.  (2 more cylinders helps)
     
FYI, I only, only use 94 octane gas.  Plugs, wires, cap, and rotor are 
replaced every spring.  Hey guess what, I was late this year!!  Haven't 
done the wires/cap yet.  
     
Thanks for all the replies guys.
