quick question

ive noticed a loss in power and a hesitation of when i press the pedal and when the engine actually starts to rev. and ive seen conflicting reports that it could be the knock sensor. so i ran my cpu and the knock sensor is all that came up. the mechanic took it for a quick test drive and said my clutch is pretty worn. he said i shouldnt bother replacing the knock sensor as it wont have any effect. he says the clutch is whats giving me my bad performance.

any thoughts?

yes, replace your KS !!! and if the clutch is bad replace it too.
