Knock control weird after using Lucus octane boost
Posted: Mon Oct 22, 2018 2:58 am
I ran initially .5 bottle for the whole tank, and it seemed to work. Knock stayed around 57 rather than 60+ consistently after good pulls. It got as high as 63 but came down quick back to .49.
Usually it will get highest around .70, then I chill til it gets back down to .49.
Where things went south was putting the rest of the bottle in after my test run. When I woke up the next day and started to drive to work, I always use ECO till the engine warms up. When I turned off ECO, my knock control went as high as 1.06 quickly. Very not normal. At this point I am freaking out. I drove to work not getting on it because it would hover around .90. I later found that using ECO mode, that the knock comes back down to .49.
I have tried new gas, different stations and I only use Shell. Reflashing the same tune. Nothing as returned my car to normal after 3 tanks.
Stock car, running 21lbs dual tune.
Now when I get in, after warm up it will start to ping or knock control goes up high, I use ECO to get it all the way normal, or turn off around 60, and let it learn down in full boost mode. From there I can usually get on it like I used to. With knock control shooting up to 60+ and come down after crusing a little bit. Knock counts are anywere from 0 to 2 per drive. Was 0 on my 140 mile drive today.
So IDK what gives. Also, I have never shown data for ethanol percent until after this condition, but it is always 0% is this value supposed to be populated?
Thanks in advance for any advice or help.
