Problems with Detonation after Plugs - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Lowflight · 07-21-2007

I replaced the original plugs with NGK Iridium IX BKR5EIX in my 1992. I also installed a K&N and a Marc HAibeck chip the same day. Now, I get a TINY amount of what I think is detonation just after 2nd and 3rd gear. You have to listen for it....but it is a definate...click...click...click on acceleration.

I installed the plugs with no gap change as they are gaped at .50. I left the washer on when I installed them.

Suggestions?

As far as I know, it was not detonating with the original plugs (though it ran like crap in comparison)
