Does your saab not have knock sensors then?
(I wasn't aware saab made an engine big enough to demand 98)

my V6 does not
and only 2 oxygen sensors, one of which is out.

The cars at work don't have knock sensors either, they imply knock from piston velocity calculations. Knock sensors ain't everything. Anyway, I'd rather not retard the spark advance on sensing knock if I can not get so much knock in the first place.

calculating piston velocity?
fucking hell, how do they manage to do that? multiple crank position sensors?

neural network in the EMS.
no it's not BS.

I'm only just learning about ECUs to start with
getting my head around Motronic 1.3, let alone EMS :(

Bosch invented CAN
without that I'd not be in my current job.

So Bosch is ace.

That stuff goes wayyyyy over my head
If I can't solve it with a can of carb cleaner, I'm not interested

He was a boy of soft demeanour
and he loved his carburettor cleaner
the vapour made a sweet aroma
he sniffed himself into a coma...
