Paul,

Here are some more details on the engine knocking warning on my '85 5000T.

The car is 100% stock, no mods at all. The car feels fine when the light 
comes on except the Turbo is clear out as indicated. So I guess it pretty 
much feels as the 5000S it becomes with the wastegate open. The punch is 
gone but it runs file. No Check Engine stuff. The gas is fine, no swapping. 
Fuel filter is a couple of years old. The problem is pretty constant now. 
Initially it would only happen on a cold or rainy day but when the problem 
set in, it would persist for the remainder of the drive. Again now it is 
constant.  Martin Slotterback suggested that it might be the temperature 
sensor on the intercooler air intake which I plan to check. Any other 
thoughts?

Thanks for your help,  Bo.

Bo,

Let's get some more information be proffering any advice.
Is your car stock?  How does it feel when the light comes
on?  Have you seen the check engine light?  Any codes?
Any suspect gas?  Done any recent swapping?  Any
other misc details left out?
