I doubt it's the ECM. Have any of the shops checked the knock system activity when this happens?

"There is no change in rpm or speed, volts dont change either.Im going to pull my injectors and ecm and send them to Arizona Speed and Marine. They said they can check everything for around 175.00.I'll see what they say."
