NTK manufactures sensors in ISO 14001, TS 16949 and TS 17025-certified facilities, ensuring a quality that meets or exceeds OE specifications. NTK sensors undergo extreme test conditions that include vibration, thermal shock, vibration and OBD verification on vehicle testing.

Engineers at NGK Spark Plugs (USA), Inc. work with an experienced team of in-house technical sensor specialists to identify faults in OE sensor designs and applications, providing industry-leading sensor solutions. By thoroughly investigating sensor-related repairs and conducting case studies, NTK engineers continually develop technical sensors to prevent common repair problems found in OE parts.

Tips & Tools For The Repair

• Helpful Tools: A Scraper, to remove carbon deposits on the engine; Intake Valve Cleaner, to clean the Intake Manifold; a Torque Wrench, to tighten the sensor(s) according to OE specifications.
• Replace all Knock Sensors together while you already have the intake removed. Engines typically have one knock sensor per bank.
• Old, brittle connectors often break during installation or removal - replace the corresponding Knock / Detonation Sensor Connector (found in the "Electrical-Connector" category) to prevent failure.
