excellent piece of kit..
So, if the MAF sensor was actually verified as failing (sorry, not wanting to cast doubt on Reggie) then, this is proof that a knocklink CAN actually prevent engine damage

Though I suspect the 'MAX power' element does count in 70% of installations

Good old knocklink thread!

I wouldn't bother with one if you have had it mapped for a certain fuel. but i have sold my shed now so i don't care.

The most useful bits of information on this thread seem to be:

Changing gear can also bring another LED on aparently as can using cheap fuel.

And to answer your question, I have uploaded the knocklink instuctions for you:
