Hi all, i have finished putting the motor back in and i have this plug left over. Any ideas as to where it goes? Its a 2000 model auto. Any help would be appreciated.



THis is the plug:

Also have another question, i took the car for a test drive after putting some k's on it and it has a knock sound at about 2000 rpm and up if i start to boost it (im only letting it boost to about 4-5 psi). I have the knock sensor installed. Any ideas?



The car idles perfectly and it drives very well.



I also noticed that when i installed the motor and started it up, the knock sensor was not connected. What worried me is that it didnt show an engine light. Is this normal? I would have thought it would have shown one if the knock sensor wasn't installed.



Thanks

also, i have a feeling i messed this up, where does the vac line from the fuel regulator go to? i have it on the manifold but im sure it wasnt there initially.

Also the engine light will not come on at all, and im having trouble getting it to flash any codes. Is the series 8 diagnostic process different?



Thanks
