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

So which would cause it to not start the knock sensor?

[Powers]

So who has got some ideas?!?!

[123abc]

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.

So I FINALLY got the car started!!! Two months later but hey got her done well close still gotta pit fluid in tranny connect a couple belts and bleed the clutch brakes and power steering

[Powers]

Couple wires disconnected bad ground and battery was not turning fast enough
