Hi guys, I'm looking for knock sensor for my 85/86 Turbo Coupe. It fell appart and I would like to buy another one. Unfortunatelly I wasn't able to find any supplier and no european Ford uses this sensor. Ford code is E3ZF 12A699 AA. Ford uses several same looking knock sensors, but they are tuned for different frequencies, so it's necessary to use the correct one.
No need to even use them. I remove them all the time. I am thinking i can find one in the shop somewhere. Let me look. Here is 2 i have laying around. One is from an 86 and the other from my 88. But i do not know which is which.

Please look at that tiny code number in a rectangle under the big number. It should be E3ZF 12A699 AA. The top one has visible E3ZF, so I think that one is the piece I'm looking for.
Everyone in the 2.3T world never uses them....just saying.
In 1983 this was father Ford's first attempt at knock control. ....it's terrible. ...should be in the block to be effective. ...not the intake. He'll ford didn't put a knock sensor in the 4.6 V8 2V unit 2003????
Just very conservative computer programming. ...
Anyway....not worry about it....just keep her running good...
