Car keeps cutting off

I have a 1996 Nissan Altima GXE and it keeps cutting off. I had the code crank sensor and replaced it and after I did so, it fixed the problem for about a month. Now I have the code knock sensor showing up. Do the knock sensor needs replaced? I have read a couple blogs and they said to use a higher fuel grade. Could you help me so that this problem can be corrected?

SOURCE: location of knock sensor on a 1996 Nissan Altima

The knock sensor is underneath the intake manifold on the rear of the engine.
If you got an engine check code from Autozone or some other goof ball company like that go and get a full tank of the highest quality gas and see if that fixes the problem.

I have a 96 Nissan Altima GXE with the 2.4 liter motor that has a problem code coming up P1401 do u know what it is

this code is telling you something is wrong with your EGR temp sensor circuit, this is due to an extreme low or high voltage detection from the sensor by your cars ECM computer. check the harness connections or check/ place your EGR temperature sensor, this should solve your issue, thanks
