Knocking in an engine, often referred to as "detonation," occurs when fuel-air mixture ignites prematurely in the combustion chamber, causing a rapid pressure spike. This can be due to various factors, such as low-quality fuel, incorrect ignition timing, or excessive engine temperatures. The resulting noise can indicate potential damage to engine components if not addressed, as it leads to increased wear and tear. Proper tuning and using the right fuel can help mitigate knocking.
