    My personal un-knowledgeable opinion is that it won’t work. I’d rather believe you have some fault in the computerized fuel injection system. Possibly a bad sensor somewhere.


    Not personally familiar with you vehicle but I suspect your in need
    of a knock sensor. This sensor detects pre-ignition and retards the
    timing accordingly. Best to take it to where they have experience
    with your brand and have the proper test equipment. Allowing this
    to continue can be way more expensive and inconvenient than what
    taking it in now and leaving it for a day will be.

    A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
