some body told me once that bad gas will cause that. Something to the extent that it is knocking after the motor is turned of. Get some different gas or try an adative and it keeps happening then you might want to mess with the timming. I am not really sure, I am just taking a stab in the dark.

ISO HEET will take care of bad gas,timing should be at 20degrees. (i might not remember that right. but it's in the fourms or 240sx.org's faq)

i think this is fairly common with KAs.... when i put in a fidanza lightweight flywheel and new engine mounts the "problem" dissapeared.
