Have you ever checked the ECT sensor (Engine Coolant Temp), when they go bad they give a ridiculous temp reading and the ecu doesnt know what to do. Ive had a few of those go bad causing many a headache.
This is why I asked about the CEL that he said it has. When mine is unplugged it'll flood my car out causing it not to start. (obviously)

p0150 is an o2 sensor circuit malfunction (bank2 sensor 1)
p0174 is a system too lean (bank 2)
p0325 is a knock sensor circuit malfunction

The knock sensor shouldn't be the one to cause it to not start, it just won't idle or run very good.
I would start by locating the knock sensor and inspecting the sensor itself, the connection and the wires.
