The knock sensor is located in the engine "V" under the upper and lower intake manifolds, and under the coolant crossover pipe. It requires considerable disassembly to get to.

There are two oxygen sensors, one at the front where the exhaust pipe comes down and turns toward the back, and one behind the second converter, under the passenger seat.
