Knock readings

[tzitzikas]

07 mustang supercharged all forged 15psi.Diablo predator.
20 degrees total timing

How do i read the 2 KS knocks when THEY are in volts?

Iam getting 112 on one ks and on the other ks 1777 on both ks at wot .
I dont hear it knock or ping. runs like a bear. 10.90 1/4 MILE, 93OCT

best bet would be to have your tuner go over the logs to interpret the data.

monitor spark and see if it is pulling timing at WOT.

My question is: Why does it show knock in volts on a mustang !

I AM NOT ASKING IF IT AS ADDING OR PULLING TIMING !

How do you interped the volts from the knock?

Is this a difficult question? Why can't you tell me?
OR YOU DO NOT KNOW !
Don't the tuners at diablo know?

THIS WHY IAM ON THIS FORUM DO GET AN ANSWER.
WHEN I CALLED DIABLO ON THE PHONE THEY SAID POST IT !!!!!!!!!!!!

It shows it is voltage since that is how Fird measures it, those PIDs are designed to be useful to a Ford technician, we simply make them available to you should you choose to monitor them.

Am i speaking GREEK here MIKE ?

Obviously YOU cannot interped the voltage! BECAUSE YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT IT MEANS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FOR THE LAST TIME FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!

What is the knock voltage interpetation so i can tune this car for more boost ?
IF YOU DO NOT KNOW,JUST ASK one OF YOUR TUNERS MIKE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


When i call you people ,no tuner wants to come to the phone to talk to me!
WHAT KIND OF SUPPORT IS THIS?

[mikel]

Yes, it is Greek.

If you dont understand why it is showing Volts, I can not explain it to you.

If it is that important to you, try this:

KS is essentially a piezoelectric transducer (e.g. Microphone).

I know what knock is an does.
I just need to convert the knock volts it to ad.

On a dodge LTknock and STknock is read in degrees. But not on a ford on the diablo knock is in volts.

[mikel]

Thats the thing, its not 'on the diablo', that is raw data from ford, thats how their PCM displays it.
If you plug in a Snap on tool, or a Ford scanner, it will show you the same thing, its not something 'we' did.

When diablo tunes a car how do you know when a mustang has knock?
What do you lookt at?
How do you know it has knock?

Good find Lew.
I saw that link in the search results, but did not have a chance to look it over.

FWIW, if you live stream to the DV, you will be able to select DMRs, and there should be the described KR PIDs in degrees.

I have seen the light! Hallelujah (Thanks Lew) Someone is on the ball here.
