Hello, I'm gonna ask and hope someone has an answer. What symptoms might I experiance if my knock sensor is bad? Reason I ask is my 1997 Altima starts and idles great, just don't accelerate to fast or it will die. Thanks for the help.

what is measured fuel pressure on engine side of filter?

what is your base timing set at? read it again hot in gear under load at 1700-2000 rpm, then again with no-load and same rpm.

bad ks will affect acceleration since it retards the timing, but won't make it die.
