its on the back of the block, under the intake manifold, its normally easiest to get to it from under the car.

you (well I) can reach from the passenger side putting my hand/arm under the manifold and around the brace on that side. its about where #3 is.

I found it easiest to put my phone on video and put it down there to see what i had to work my arm around to get to it. Sounds silly but is a good idea.

Its mid way up the back of the block behind cylinder #3....you`ll need a ring spanner or deep socket to remove it.

Can anyone give me a picture of the wiring leading to the knock sensor when you come in from the top so i can follow it to the knock sensor. There is such a mass of wires and pipes im just struggling to find it really would be a big help. I can't jack it up i'm afraid at this present time.

Its a kind of beige/brown one, comes our of the hard plastic case obviously. Its a cock of a thing to find, should be running down between runners 3 and 4. Might have some condute sh!t on it.

Batman yeah they are in the same location for gen2 and gen3, and fyi thats an mr2 engine, not a 185 one, pretty much the same thing appart from a couple of ancilaries locations.

I will have a good look for it but i may have to wait till i go home and can jack it up, have to get some good pictures of it as there really is quite limited information on where the damn thing is, well picturewise atleast.
