Hello all, first time post, so bear with me.
I'm a long time fan of the legacy GTB, first time owner. I bought a cheap, $2300, project, something that needs a little work.
The car its self is a 1998 manual legacy GTB, BG5, with the EJ20R engine. I've had it for about 4 weeks and for the last 2 or so weeks its been misfring, i think, maybe not even firing on one back. It has a major vibration when accelerating or going up hills. If i accelerate hard it seems to get small and very short power boosts. as though the misfire goes and then instantly comes back. It is also giving me code 22 (Knock sensor or circuit).

Can anyone tell me the location of the knock sensor?
Are the misfire and knock sensor error related, or does the problem go deeper?

Any help would be great
Thanks very much!!

Could be spark plug, or coilpack, or worse.
