I have a question about wiring the knock sensor on the engine I'm putting in. I believe its the knock sensor anyway, it comes out between the driver side head and the intake on the 3VZE. Anyhow, its a different plug, and the one on the engine has only 1 wire, whereas my truck wiring has 2. Can I assume that its grounded inside the motor and only solder the black wire, or is it just a waste of time and I have to take it apart to change the sensor. The latter would surprise me, but with the luck I've been having...
Knock sensor wiring

Well, since it seems like both wires carry the same info ( opened the old engine and it is only one wire that goes to the sensor, 2nd one splices in there later), I spliced both mine to the 1 that goes into new plug, and connected it. Lets hope I'm not wrong
Took out red wire from the splice. Code 52 gone. Anyone know what the combination meter does?
No leaky gasket finally, but had to take plenum off again to change injector seat and o-ring.
Runs kinda off a little, thinking maybe 1 cam might be off a notch. Would have happened when I changed the idler pulley. Now would a compression tell me if this is case. One side's compression would be lower, no? Just as simple to take the FC off but just wonderning if in theory it would work.
