Bad Knock Sensor
Well, I just had my car scanned today (for free, lol) and it came up with a code 42, which was linked to a bad knock sensor. How hard are these to replace?

Um? no.
I have that as well and its caused because of the KR I get. Yours could be a bad knock sensor though, depending on the circumstances....Its a PITA to get to last time I checked on my 93.
Mine happens (code) on a mountain pass when I'm running sustained 20* of KR all the way up and WOT.

I can't remember if you have a front and back or just one.
Pretty easy if you can get to them. If you have two, they are dead center of the block. Right below cylinders 3 and 4, with a nice little shield and connector.
I think I have a pic.. BRB

Here'* one. Little white part of the connector showing behind the AC bracket.
And the other with the wire hooked up under the exhaust
Thinking more..I think in 92 there was only one at one end of the engine.
