While doing my clutch, i seemed to brake the knock sensor by the starter when i was doing my clutch. The cable and connector did not snap, just the actual sensor its self. My question is, what are the effects on drivability and would driving it damage my engine? I wouldnt mind if it hurt the gas milage any, just damage is my main concern.

I went to autozone and they wanted almost $200 bucks for this sensor, can not afford it rite now, but still need my vehicle.

Thanks for the help with my questions.
