more noob knocking questions

ok i think my car is knocking but i really don't know how to tell. i watched DoriFCto ( http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=jerry's+fc ) and my car doesn't sound like his but the tech bunces when i idle after hitting the brakes. and has feels like DoriFCto videos sounds.

how can truly tell if it is knocking or not cuz if it's not knock then i can sleep easy.

Have you checked your plugs and wires? How loud is the knocking? Timing? Im no expert but Id check those first.

i just got it, then i test drove it it was fine but they had the brake master repleaced when i picked it up and the mech super fludded it so that may have played a part in it. hoping it's the plugs or something but still trying to get as mush info as i can

Deflooding the engine will foul plugs. Trust me I went through 3 sets, but check them and your timing.

granny shift in the first at a light, power into 2en then 3ed no problem. next light same thing but some where in 2en about 4-5k rpms there a slit power loss then it's back lest then a split sec. het 3rd and about 4k rpms the power drops and theres a very small back fire but the motor asks as if i'm not pressing hte gas so i let off and granny to 4th and just drive. next light i so all of the above with out power shifting an only giving it 4/5 the power and it doesn't do it
