26807, need some help (long load)
Posted by optimuspeterson, Jul-07-02 03:31 PM
here are some pics... what is this bracket? i never took it off when i took it down tothe machine shop then they did and i don't know where it goes.





i don't remeber where the my last sensor goes ( i already have oil pressure and crank in the right spot), i believe its the nock sensor. i think it goes where the paint is chipped a little (the once circled in red). and what goes in all the other threaded holes (ones circled in green)?

knock sensor -> red circle.

Torque it to EXACTLY 7 ft/lbs! Any more and it'll read off, any less and it might not read at all.

i would look into the chiltons or the fsms for that peice u have no clue of....like the diagrams w/bolt torque specs etc...

i did see a similar mounting bracket when i removed my intake mani, but i dont think its the same one....

good luck

C"mon guys! That's the bracket that attaches to the front side of the block and bolts to the exhaust downpipe for extra support.

Oh, okay... So, it's one of those unnecessary things. No wonder it didn't look familiar.. i don't have one.
