Had It With Idle Knock!
Well ive been battling the problem for some time now, as you can see in my sig. Well today is the last straw. In CT we got up to about 60deg today, nice right... WRONG. It seem whenever its warm outside 55+deg my truck knocks like none other when idleing. Everytime I came to a stop sign, or red light it started knocking nice and loud. The only other mod I can do is the regulated return. But I dont want to spend $400 on something that might not fix it, like everthing else ive done. I just dont understand why it only happends when its warm, the truck idles like a top when its in the 40s or bellow. Does anyone know why this only happens when its warm?

I had the same issue with my 00, and got rid of just about all the knock with a CCK, and increasing my fuel preussure to 68-70psi. I started with the in tank /pre pump mods, and it helped a little, but doing the CCK and FPR it cleaned the knocking up a bunch it now knocks every now and again.
I was on the fence about spending the big $$$ for a RR kit, so I wnet with the CCK and have been very happy.

I dont have a LL injector thats why I was going to go with the reg return. I know its not the TC, the knocking is coming from the driver side of the motor. I do have a parker store 3 miles from my house who ive bought some things from before, i might just build the reg return myself. Does anyone have a parts list? I think the fuel rail plugs in the heads are 1/4"ntp. So I could get some ntp to jic straight adapters, then the SS braided line with swivel nuts so it would be easy to put together.
