I've changed the EGR valve, sensor, and checked for vacuum leaks.
So what's next? I've heard that it maybe running to lean. I don't know what to do about that.

Thanks in advance

I don't know what you mean by CEL. Yes it is stock with 168k on it. I've found that there was a tech bulletin (5173) on error codes P1131/P1151 which was what I found with a scanner.
I was told to replace the knock sensor since that was the next probable cause. I think I found it off the very back of the block. Trouble is getting to it.
Any suggestions?

You can try to reach it from underneath if you have room to ?

CEL=Check Engine Lights, which is what you already scanned for.

Timing or crappy fuel probably...
