Hello everyone. I recently bought a 91 hatch, and really enjoy this car. Especially after doing the 5 spd swap. As I'm going along trying to bring the car up to code, Im finding a lot of little issues here and there :crazy: . So Im sure Ill be posting here a lot.

My main issue right now is a CEL. I keep getting a knock sensor code, even after replacing with a new oem sensor. I found out the owner prior to me, had replaced the engine with one from an s14. My questions is, will my s13 ecu control the s14 motor correctly. I looked up the diffrences between the ka24des' and the compression does change.

When the prior owner replaced it, his mechanic did swap out the intake and Im sure the distributor. Cars runs great, I just cant clear the CEL. Any ideas?
