.......... If it is from the PCV, disconnect, clean the intake and run the car to see if there is a KR difference. ..........
Well I'll defer to you that the oil could be the cause, but I was going on the basis of the appearance of the spark plugs. They didn't seem to be oil fouled.
Thats what gets me. The plugs tell the story yet no one here knows how to look at the facts. It all a big guessing game. This thread has degraded the credibility of it's posters. Without mentioning names, people still have allot to learn.
If your getting oil in the intake, it's easy enough to unplug/block off the PCV valve and see if the supposed detonation goes away.
When your ready to get to the bottom of all this, eliminate the spark plugs, wires, coil pack, module, crank and cam sensors otherwise this is all just thread soup.

Yeah, I know what you guys mean.
The plugs are clean, but I know from limited experience that a little bit of oil can cause KR, even though it will not show up on the plugs, or in the exhaust.
My experience is based on a Non-IC'd set-up and it is entirely possible that the non IC’d cars are a lot less tolerant to oil in the intake.
Chris, Rick;
Were you able to distinguish “oil deposits” vs “carbon/soot from a rich mixture” from the pictures?
If so, what did you see in the pics to draw that conclusion?
I would really learn how you do that, based on the pictures (No pun intended)
Again, just looking to learn and futher my education.
