Where is the knock sensor
For
2001 Mercury Truck Villager Wagon 3.3L SFI SOHC 6cyl the Knock Sensor (KS) is located on the engine block under the intake
manifold.
The sensor monitors preignition, or spark knock, and sends the
signal to the PCM. The PCM responds by adjusting ignition and fuel
timing until knocking is stopped. Vibrations in the engine are sensed by
the piezoelectric element and weight in the KS as vibrational pressure.

-
Remove the lower intake manifold.
-
Remove the coolant crossover tube.
-
Disconnect the KS electrical connector.
-
Remove the KS bolt and remove the sensor.
-
The installation is the reverse of removal.
Hope helps.
When driving seems like it

Turns over,won't start
You first have to determine if its fire or fuel. To do this listen when you turn on the ignition switch, You should hear a buzzing sound from the fuel tank to indicate your fuel pump is working. If no sound check pump fuse and relay. If you hear the sound spray quick start into the intake manifold and try to start. If it starts or try's to start its a problem with fuel pressure or fuel filter. If you get nothing it's likely fire.
I have a 2001 mercury
I would get it out of the dealer.
It is 9 years old,only go there when it is free and under warantee.
Does it only act up with A/C on?
Sounds like a pressure control issues in trans ,only when it acts up.
Not in the trans,maybe a sensor on trans or solenoid in trans.
The shift stratagy and pressure control is being effected by an outside issue possibly.
You need a really good diagnostic tech at a local shop to work it out.
A/C fan switch only works on high
it's your blower motor resistor in the plenum case. They usually blow the thermal limiter because the blower motor is drawing too much current. It's starting to go.
You can replace the resistor, 2 screws under the dash on the passenger side. It has a 4 or 5 wie connector. About $25 from a Ford or Mercury dealer.

Runs good for about 15 min then dies. try to
First check to make sure your battery wires are nice and snug, if they are and you still have the problem. I think that You either have a bad alternator or bad battery. Take your battery to auto zone and have them charge it and make sure that it holds a charge, they will let you know if its bad. Next thing is take your alternator into auto zone and have them test it to see if its still good. If it has any roughness to it when you spin it, ie.. doesnt spin freely, seems to slow done very fast, it is proabably bad, and again, auto zone will be able to help you test it.
