Engine spark knock a lot mostly when you mash the gas peddle, I've changed to non ethanol gas, used a can of seafoam, no help at all, changed spark plug wires, coil one year ago.

Verify that the EGR is working and opening fully and the passage isn't clogged. You could also have excessive carbon buildup on the pistons which increases the compression ratio.
