Default KR under light load????

I did some logging yesterday. Under a light load around 50 mph 2,000 RPM in OD 50-75% throttle maybe 2-3 psi I get some KR. Full throttle from a dead stop through all the gears full bost I don't get any. Any Idea why its doing this?? Can this be bad at crusing speed or should I Haul *** all the time??? lol.

I get that all the time, never been able to tune it out no mater how much fuel I add or how much timing I take out. My thinking is if i can't hear it, and it won't go away, then it's must not be real or important, lol.

I get it too, but I thought it was just a 2000 PCM issue. I'm glade to see I'm not alone.

What is your actual timing when the KR kicks in?

I had it as well, but found that tweeking the TCC lockup and unlock points got rid of it. I guess it was putting too much of a load on mine in OD with the converter still locked. I could damn near build full boost before my converter unlocked. All is well now.

What are your converter settings? I get almost instant KR of 7* when I give a little pedal when the converter is locked and I am in OD. I have to let completly off the gas to get it back to 0 and then try again.

I have had this all along and have never been able to tune it out. As much as 8* indicated a steady state cruise out of the blue. I have desensatized my sensors a smidge. To the point of still getting a bit from time to time but not so much as to keep my Knock learn going way down.

I'd like to see several of you guys post your TC settings and KR sensor values. Just for comparison.
