no I have not replaced the knock sensor yet. The engine does not have any taps that I can hear. Does have an exhaust leak.

The engine seem to act up when it gets warm. When its cold it runs fine. Not sure what code for knock sensor will check this weekend.

Ok, I replaced both Knock sensors. The engine light went out but it still has same problem. It seems it runs fine on the flat but when come to hill it losses all power. Back fires. Any help any one. Should I start replacing coils, plugs, wires???
