No, the knock sensor only retards the timing when it detects the engine pinging.
The Right Front ABS wheel speed sensor is also used as a rough road sensor to assist the knock sensor in dectecting weather there is a knock from engine or bump from the road in order to adjust the spark and fuel.
The EGR valve or the Knock Sensor could be the problem here. Repairs run about $500.00 at a shop or do it yourself for about $250.00
Yes, that can be one of the possible causes, however if your spedometer is working properly than I would be looking elsewhere, possibly a dirty or plugged tranny filter or burnt fluid.
If it is slipping in gear or any out of the ordinary rough shifting.
The oxygen sensor, if defective, will give inaccurate readings to the engine management computer and may lead to a rough idle.
Yes
could be a plug wire, vacuum leak, etc... also, the basics like compression..

Clean your fuel lines, by putting treatment in it and good gas, if it's fuel injected take out your injecters and clean them with gas. Check out your inline fuel filter to see if its obstructed(blow through it). You may have to adjust your idle, this would explain the rough start and dying. Good luck with your project!
Yes, a malfunctioning ambient sensor can affect the transmission during shifts. The ambient sensor provides crucial information about environmental conditions, which can influence engine performance and transmission behavior. If the sensor fails, it may lead to incorrect data being sent to the engine control unit (ECU), potentially causing rough shifting or delays in transmission response. This can ultimately result in degraded vehicle performance and drivability issues.
