Knock sensors detect abnormal vibrations in the engine. The system is designed to reduce spark knock during periods of heavy detonation. Knock sensors produce AC output voltage which increases with the severity of the knock. The signal is fed into the PCM and the timing is retarded to compensate for the severe detonation.

What is the function of a knock sensor on a 1991 4.3 s10?
The function of the knock sensor ob a sensor on a 1991 4.3 s10 is to provide the computer the position of the crank shaft to give it the right information to get correct timing. That would be the crank position sensor. The knock sensor monitors the engine for spark knock (ping) so the ECM (Engine Control Module) can retard the timing to eliminate it.

the knock sensor monitors preignition,spark knock and sends signal to pcm,pcm responds by adjusting ignition timing and fuel timing until knock is gone.
What is the function of an detonation knock sensor?
The knock sensor detects spark knock or ping and sends a signal to the vehicles putor. The putor takes that information and retards timing in an attempt to eliminate the ping.
