you can. I drove without one for about one month without problems. The engine run fine, but it had no timing advance, so it had reduced power. As a funny note, since the timing was not advancing, I just put 87 in the car while I waited for the sensor and it made no difference until then, hehe.

I am still using a '03 Civic Si Knock sensor, I now have 5K miles on it, I will let you know if I ever blow my motor b/c of detonation.
42.00 instead of 150.00

wow, im sure you saved all of 1$. I cant believe some of you guys, if there is a damn CEL on FIX it, dont continue to drive it just because it "feels fine". The CEL is there for a reason.
. It's not like we have a CEL and we don't know what's going on. I've had CEL's for EVAP system malfunctions and I really don't give a damn about that and left it like that for months. Every scenario is different.
