Knock Sensor Error after engine replacement 850 1996

Lets start with some things, and see what we can cover. The difference in the fuel rail: The '98 has the fuel pressure regulator (FPR) down on the firewall. The '96 its on the rail. AFAIK if you don't have the FPR, you're going to run into problems. Did they install the FPR where it should be on the '98?


Now as to the knock sensors, are they plugged in? Check the wires to see if perhaps they're cut or shorted somewhere. Did the ECM get changed too, or just the engine? The '98 uses a different knock sensor than the '96, perhaps there was a problem hooking it up and it was neglected?

If you're not driving it "like its stolen," are you really driving?
