missfire

[Jakins]

so i just replaced my maf sensor hopeing to fix my car and its missfire problem, but it started getting worse lol. the check light stayed off for a bit but all of a sudden my car missfired and bogged for 2 or 3 seconds and the check engine light came on. i havnt checked the codes but the same thing happend befor and it was the knock sensor. doese the knock sensor cause missfireing if it is bad or does it just report if there is missfire and i have to find the problem elswere?

1. check wires 2. check spark plugs 3. check distributor 4. pull spark plugs, pressure test coolant and check for coolant in cylinders... gl
