Showing positive knock readings while cruising

[Jeff_oddo]

Took the car out and noticed my Ngauge showing positive knock while I was just cruising on the highway and city streets. It seemed to be happening as more load on the vehicle was being placed on it. It would range from +.25 to +1.80 and would fluctuate while cruising. When I slightly pressed the gas it would happen, but the further I pressed the gas it would then go into the negative readings. Pretty odd.... Is this something I need to be concerned about?

I don't know what's normal, but I would not want to see any positive knock. Is this 93 octane tune? Maybe you can try a 91 tune with 93 fuel ?

93 octane. I have some MS109 coming this week and I was going to mix it in with my 93 to see if it's just bad fuel.
