I still say > its a righer RPM problem A few years ago a friend of mine, a mechanical engineering professor in automotive engineering, loaned me a book that he thought was basic enough that I could "get" it. Most of it was, and it was pretty explicit about knock being a WOT/low RPM thing. OTOH, I have no idea what you are hearing at 70 MPH. Perhaps you're running too rich and the unburned gas is exploding in the exhaust? I really don't know, just thinking out loud. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Too much?
