Are you using a GSR engine and cockpit harness? Or did you have to wire in the knock sensor yourself? If so, you may want to use shielded wiring instead of just normal wires. However, some people on here just use normal wires and it works fine, but the factory harness uses shielded wiring.

I meant what station. Considering our state average is around $3.20, I can't imagine any gas station legally having $0.40 over average.

Ok back to the code 2 things when you swapped the engine make sure 1 you have shielded wire form the sensor to the ecu 2
There is no continuity between sensor wire and the wires shielding. 3 make sure shielding is grounded.
