knock sensor?

do anyone know where the knock sensor is located in a 96 z, i've heard that if defective it might cause your car not to start is this true?

I think? its on the right hand side, above the oilpan.. Just infront of the starter

No it will not cause a no start. A defective knock sensor will cause a driving condtion due to retarding the timing. Also your correct its on the passenger side , next to the starter.

Is there only one knock sensor on my 94 Lt1? I didn't really check, i knew of the one on the passenger side and didn't check the drivers side...

Thanks,
William

yup only one.

Edit- Wait did it come out of a Vette?.
