my s2 has got the wrong inlet manifold on where the knock senser plugs in its just got a pipe going to master cylinder been told it is ok 2 drive it like this at the moment it has got a s1 ecu in it but i am putting a s2 1 in it 2morrow. so do i need 2 get a new inlet manifold aswell

 

Um, you just have an early inlet, not all RST's had a knock sensor, that pipe is meant to be there - do not unplug or unscrew it

Do you have a knock sensor plug wired in??
btw, it actually goes to the servo - NOT master cylinder

 

oh right it as all the wiring for a knock senser tho my old s2 was a 88 that had knock senser if i swap the ecus will it mess up the timing

 

The pipe from inlet (black one) goes to servo - don't touch it

as far as the other, I really don't know mate

 

ok thanks 4 ur help mate

 

the knock sensor goes below the pipe for the servo !!

some early rst's didn't have knock sensors as said above !
does yours have a green multi plug near the inlet manifold then?

 

Its all relevant to wether or not the ecu your about to fit requires the sensors or not?

 

yes the ecu i am gona fit is hearts and diamonds so i do need to change inlet manifold 4 1 with a knock sensor or it will mess up the timing thats if i have been told right just cant figure out why it has got the wrong parts on in the first place

sorry mate yes the green plug is all there

 

IVE JUST PUT A NEW ZVH IN MY S2 AND INLET MANIFOLD HASNT GOT A KNOCK SENSOR IN BUT MY OLD ENGINE HAD ONE WILL I BE OK OR WILL IT NOT RUN RIGHT
