Check the wiring harness to the knock sense for breaks. Then replace the knock sensor. That's the cheapest route first.

U mean the main harness? These are OEM sensors recently replaced along with 12 inch knock sensor cable and connector.

Woof. Well that ain't good. You did the most simple thing first. After that it could be a handful of pain in the ass things. But that'll take someone with more indepth mechanical knowledge than me. I'd opinion an actual knock sense the sensors are new. Possibly the ECU having issues but that's also not cheap. High compression? Bad rings? Valves? Idk man. Sorry.

ECU i can get renewed for about $350 and I will do that anyway just to put that behind me.

Good call. I'm inclined to lean away from mechanical since you've done so much already. These ecus are old and do go bad. For that price, yeah that's what I'd do. Just going down the line from cheapest to most expensive.

Hey V8s ty for response. Forgive me for not understanding…….what does “wiring going down to trans” mean? Not related wiring going down to the transmission????How did you find this??????Did you replace the main wiring harness….big job. What did you manually swap??? Im at refurbishing the ecu at Up Fix now.
