A knock sensor is a device that senses detonation. Detonation occurs in the engine when the fuel begins to burn prematurely; it can cause substantial damage to the engine.

Where is the knock sensor in a 1999 Infinity I30?
The knock sensor has no effect on idle. It has no effect at all unless it is triggered by detonation. It is a passive device.
the knock sensor detects pre detonation ans adjusts the timing to compensate
The Knock Sensor (KS) is mounted on the engine, above the alternator and used to sense engine detonation. The knock sensor is a frequency amplifier with the sensor designed to resonate at approximately the same frequency as the engine knock. This allows relatively large signals to be sent to the Electronic Control Assembly (ECA) without electrical amplification and with a relatively small sensor. The ECA uses this information to alter the ignition timing to optimize ignition timing while reducing the occurrence of spark detonation.

The knock sensor is located under the manifold on the rear of the engine near the fire wall. You will need to get a new manifold gasket as this will have to be replaced after the knock sensor is reached.
The knock sensor detects spark knock or ping and sends a signal to the vehicles putor. The putor takes that information and retards timing in an attempt to eliminate the ping.
A knock sensor is a sensor inside an engine that detects detonation of fuel prior to the spark plug igniting the full during the cycles of the engines. Detonation at the wrong time can cause significant harm to an engine since it will cause the piston where the detonation occurred to be pushed down at the incorrect time. This can result in a catastrophic breakdown of the whole engine. A knock sensor monitors irregular detonation and will automatically retard or advance the timing of the engine to ensure that serious damage is not caused to the motor.

can you tell me where the knock sensor is located on a 3.3l mercury villager
