Question Bad Sensor or Timing?

I'm having a problem, when I start the truck up at cold but when it finally warm up and I step on the gas to 3000 RPM and when it did it will rev. back to 1000 RPM with code 52 which I know but they told me, that code doesn't effect the truck that it rev. when it reach at certain RPM and when its cold it will run fine at any RPM only when it is warm only so I did replace ECM (use), still diong same situation but everytime I turn off the truck and start it right back up eveything will run fine only if I just don't let it run through 3,000 RPM, so is it have to do with the sensor that is locate behind the engine were the wire harness connect to? there are two sensor, which one should I bother to replace? or esle I suspect a bad VSV? 1992 3.0 V6..

Geez bro, I can't understand a freaking thing you said.

that code 52 means the comp isn't getting the knock sensor signal, and will retard your timing back quite a bit to compensate.

I had the same problem forever untill I finally replaced the knock sensor. Since I suspected the plug also, I just soldered the wire onto the knock sensor thing. No code 52 since...

I'm sorry about my english cause I'm having a syndrom in my brian which effect my thinking... I can't make any sense but when ever I smoke a load of weed I sort of open up my way to understand the concept of english verbal meaning...

And yes I was just thinking I'll just replace the sensor since it appear to given me that particular code and hope it remedy the problem it causing me for not been able to drive it for 4 anticipate months.
