knock at steady throttle.

I get random knock when just cruising, it last for maybe a fraction of a second. I don't know what the deal is, same throttle position, same fuel. I'm leaning towards false knock or just wrongly gapped/fouled plugs. although I did look at the plugs and cleaned them the other day and the seemed fine.

-on a side note, can aftermarket engine mounts prevent false knock in a sense?

- also are the ngk iridiums for our car pretty good compared to the 2 step colder ngk's?
