That doesn't change anything. When it starts knoking, turn it on. You
will have to experiment to see how much water it needs to stop the
knock. That will determine your pulse width. You can use a MAP sensor to
sense manifold pressure, and have that adjust your injector on time.


 The knock sensor unit I want to use has 3
