Hi guys,

Chasing a knock sensor for 6a13TT. A rat decided to eat mine and it's not repairable.
I'm in Aus, please include a price for postage.
Thanks

Try this one- hooray its there.

You can see it, screws into the block in the middle of the valley between the inlets. Single wire comes out and heads up towards the top of this pic

Cheers

you might find it difficult removing it, as it screwed in to a very hot block and you will not be able to get a socket on it unless you happen to have a special one with a slot down the side.
good luck, i tried removing one and it just got trashed in the attempt. i did not have the correct tool though.
heres a thought you could try drifting it with some sort of chisel.

Nah - I've changed one, robbing the replacement from a dead engine, and also kept another from a second dead engine. In all three removals and one refit I have never had a problem. Maybe yours was more rusted in than normal? Or maybe my mahoosive adjustable spanner lets me get a good angle of attack....

big spanners are great!
