Ok first off:

1992 Eclipse GSX 112k
stock boost
k&n open filter
MAF has silencer removed
S-AFC II
98 Octane Fuel
MMCD Logger

Now lately I've been having problems with phantom knock, my lifters are ticking LOUD, so I'm having a buddy send me some engine "Gunk Out" and Lucas Oil Stabilizer for next time I change my oil. If that doesn't work, 3G lifters and a new knock sensor are next. I'm reading all sorts of knock all over the place and it's pulling timing everywhere, even at like 20% throttle at 2000rpms it's getting like 30-40 counts of knock.

Now the few problems I'm seeing from my logs are:

1) reading 12.1% TPS (although my AFC reads 0.0%)
2) Cannot get a higher O2 reading than .84 at any RPM's (even with adjusting the AFC as much as +10%)

And also a problem not related to my logs is I've got a high pitched squeal coming out of the front left tire, it happens sometimes (more often now) and always happens above 5mph, randomly stops or changes pitch sometimes. Doesn't stop while I'm on the brakes either.

I can post one of my logs if you need me to, but I figure with all the problems I'm having with phantom knock it may be useless to post.

If anyone could help me with one or more of these problems, I'd appreciate it.
 
So, uh, no one can offer any help?

Can someone at least answer about the TPS problem? Because I don't know which to believe, the logger reading 12.1%, or the AFC reading 0%. Also is this causing any kind of problem? I mean it still reads 100% at WOT, so is that all that matters?
 
Perhaps you didn't understand the first time you were told not to bump.

People who have the answers generally go through the "New Posts" list rather than going down the forums. They'll find your post without "bumping", which no longer raises them in the forums anyway.
