What Controls...

Hi Guys
What controls the pulse that fires off the injector? and how is that tied to the signal that fires off the plug?

Could the "shaking engine syndrome" be the injector and plug signals are messed up?

How to check...How to check......

You know, it could be the knock sensor....thats causing the vibration.Loose connection or a bad one. Its near the center of the engine and takes a 1" open end wrench to take it off. With a new one, just tighten it all the way down, remove battery cables to reboot computer, for 30 min. then reconnect, drive for 10 miles or 30 min during the time, do stop an go driving, 55 mph driving, turn off after completing drive test. It should be good to go then. Pull the KOEO test to check for codes....
