RTP-1 engine block drain question

[jewbacca]

This is my first year with the X1, so just want to be sure I drained the block correctly. There are 2 brass drain plugs on either side of the block I pulled. Lotsa water came out. Can't find a knock sensor. I'm honestly shocked an '08 doesn't have one. Can anyone confirm that the RTP doesn't have knock sensors?

rtp1 is the predator? i always get that and the ltr mixed up, anyway the predator for sure should have a knock sensor there where your pic is...

no one pin wires floating around near there?

I think they're the same engine? Indmar 5.7L 310HP. There's a single wire sensor right above the oil filter, but I'm pretty sure that's the pressure sensor. Nothing else wired up below the exhaust manifolds

There's an old thread with a similar question. ttu said no knock sensor in his '07 RTP: https://teamtalk.mastercraft.com/showthread.php?t=32955

I had an 07 RTP, no knock sensor.

Crazy. Good to know the computer won't be compensating when I run my 87 octane gas

Appreciate the confirmation guys.

No knock sensor on my 07 X2.

Make sure you disconnect the garden hose connection between the exhaust manifolds. Usually on the port side above the transmission. You won't get much out of it, better safe than sorry.

My X1 has no knock sensor.

I got that bit! I downloaded the Indmar user manual. It details the process very well.
