The manual specifies a torque spec for the knock sensor but does not mention a spec for the brass Y-adaptor. Is the spec for assembling the sensor to the Y only, is there a spec for the Y fitting also?

there a pipe thread just tighten them up. that spec was copied from the OEM car manual. then it gets marinized and they never change the spec's around. besides it is hard to torque them unless you have a crows foot. bob

Thanks a.d., I am having some machine work done to the block and need to remove the sensor. I'll just pull the Y with the sensor in place, and then reinstall it with out disturbing the sensor. Thanks again.
