[Shotimes] Bad Knock Sensor?

[Steve Weinrich]

KS won't cause a high idle.

High idle is usually caused by a bad IAC, a partially stuck open throttle
plate, or a malfunctioning TPS>  The IAC is the most common.

The KS code usually is caused by not hitting the throttle hard enough during
the goose test.

If you are not experiencing knocking or pinging while driving, especially
under load, the KS is probably working fine.
