Ok, this is going to sound real dumb, but three of us tried for two hours to remove that damn knock sensor, but we just can't get it. I managed to rotate it 180 degrees though. Does this damn thing unscrew, unclip, or what? All the Chiltons says is to remove it. Thanks!

I think you have to use the same "socket" you use to take out the oil pressure sensor. I forgot what it's called....try a search on removing the oil pressure sensor.

PB Blaster aka SQUIRRELL PISS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! solves any problem with stuck/rusted bolts, and you can clean your guns with it while you wait for it to soak in!!! $4 at autozone. I recommend this for any automotive tool box.

It has one of those red-tab locking connectors IIRC. Look at your coil pack on the valve cover. Theres a red tab that slides to the right until it clicks, and then theres a button you press to release the latch. Then you can slide the connector off the sensor.
Personally, I ripped out all my red tabs because they piss me off.
