For one i dont need your vin its a z24 which means it has a 2.4l engine it does not have an ECM it has a PCM powertrain control module, which is located for your car in the right rear corner topside of your engine bay, in 1995-2001 it is located inside the right front fender. I hope this info helps...

Check for vacuum leaks. Spray some carb cleaner or WD40 around the intake manifold, trottle body and any vacuum lines. Check for loose connections on engine wiring harness (Maybe you disconnected a sensor, and forgot to re-attach it?).

SOURCE: where is the iat sensor located on a 1999 chevy cavalier 4cyl

The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor determines the air temperature inside the intake manifold. Resistance changes in response to the ambient air temperature. The sensor has a negative temperature coefficient. As the temperature of the sensor rises the resistance across the sensor decreases. This provides a signal to the PCM indicating the temperature of the incoming air charge. This sensor helps the PCM to determine spark timing and air/fuel ratio. Information from this sensor is added to the pressure sensor information to calculate the air mass being sent to the cylinders. The IAT is a two wire sensor, a 5-volt reference signal is sent to the sensor and the signal return is based upon the change in the measured resistance due to temperature.

Hope helped.

SOURCE: How do i change a

You may find it easier to remove the left front tire, if possible. If not turn the wheel all the way to the right. Remove the inner fender well, there are numerous 7mm bolts holding it on from under the spoiler area and around the front of the tire opening. There is one push style clip at the very top, just pull or lightly pry out. Look inside the opening to the tranny. Just above the axle shaft to the front there is the reverse switch. It is a plastic (white or black) body with a metal socket base, there are 2 wires going to it, remove the connector. Use a deep 19mm or 3/4" socket or a short wrench to remove the switch. Reverse the process.

The only thing I know of, on a gasoline engine, that will bite you is secondary ignition voltage. What about your ignition coil? If the vehicle will run, raise the hood in the dark, look for fire/spark jumping around.

Not knowing what the trouble codes are, I am only making suggestions.
You checked over the ignition system. Did you check base fuel pressure with a gauge ?

The misfires and the knock are likely two different problems.
Find the darkest place you can and with the engine at idle, open the hood and look along the ignition wiring for and arcing from the cables. GM uses miserable ignition cables and you may be 'bleeding' high voltage from them.
The knock is even more serious; if it is regular in nature, the knock could be caused by either a rod or main crankshaft bearing with heavy wear. That problem should be diagnosed by a pro in person. If you ignore it, it will likely get worse and then finally fail causing severe engine damage.

When press on the gas in my 1999 cavalier Z24 2.4L it makse this pop pop pop then takes off of if i shift into a lower gear and hit the gas it will bog out acking like its not getting fuel or miss firing...

It could be simple yet it may also be a very difficult problem to solve.

Easy DiY:
Try disconnecting the MAFS as this maybe faulty holding the engine back (this fits in with your symptoms) it the car runs better with mafs disconnected then replace it.

Not easy - get help:
Your timing may have jumped a tooth out causing all of the symptoms you have, this will require a garage to sort - try not to drive car as this will cause damage to the catalyst and may be catastrophic.

2005 Chevy Cavalier, oil pan has hole from rock. Removed all bolts but still cant get pan off. Does engine need to be supported by something during process and what can the pan be caught on

most of front end and engine cross over support--if hole is small enough clean and make a plug with pop rivet and cold weld epoxy(oil & gas proof) or if bigger use rubber oil plug replacement a plug about 1/2 inch wide used as replacement when oil drain plug damaged or cross threaded most auto stores sell them
