Inconsistent Knock Readings
So, I did a few pulls on the highway. Pulls 1 & 2 in 3rd gear, 3 & 4 in 4th, and pull 5 back in 3rd. The first 4 pulls had 1-2 knocks while the 5th pull had 1-6 knocks. These pulls were all done in an hour. Boost was constant between 14-17 PSI. The only difference is gas went from 1/2 to 1/4 tank.
My last tank was 93 oct/10% ethanol while the tank before that was 91 oct/10% ethanol. Prior to filling 93 octane, my pulls resulted in up to 12 knocks(log posted in another thread). When gas reached close to 1/4 tank, I finally found a 93 oct station and filled it to almost a full tank.
Any reason for the higher knock in last pull? Possible the left over 91 oct has anything to do with it?
Thanks!
