Re[2]: How to Get Rid of the Knock Sensor Light (aka "$" lig



     Good point Eric.
     
     After I sent that message I thought...you idiot, rich mixture is not 
     the only way to foul a plug!
     
     I chalk my haziness up to getting engaged this weekend.
     Still in shock =8|

     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.

Unless, of course, the plugs are misfiring to begin with, in 
which case the combustion chamber will be intermittently loaded 
with unburned fuel, to be burned along with the normal intake 
charge at the next firing.
